The Milwaukee Brewers sent reliever Carlos Villanueva to Triple (A)
Nashville after yesterday’s 10-2 loss to the Cincinnati Reds. Villanueva allowed 5-runs on four hits in the loss.
The move makes room for right-hander LaTroy Hawkins to be activated from the disabled list.
Villanueva started strong but has faded. His overall record at the time of his demotion to the minors is 1-0 with a 4.96 ERA in 45 appearances this season.
