September 16, 2008 Gabe Kapler, out with a torn muscle behind his throwing shoulder, will rejoin the club here on Thursday according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.
Our View:At this point, the Brewers don't know what he'll be capable of doing. They hope he can at least pinch-hit at some point.
September 11, 2008 The Brewers are in the thick of a playoff race and got some bad news today. Gabe Kapler, the Brewers top reserve, learned that he has a torn muscle behind his throwing shoulder, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Our View:The Brewers are saying that the best case scenario is that Kapler would be available for some pinch-hitting duties down the road. Even though Kapler has been a good pinch-hitter this year, he has no fantasy value.
September 10, 2008 Gabe Kapler had to leave the Brewers game against the Reds after it looked like he injured his shoulder making a throw from the outfield in the sixth inning, according to Brewers.com.
Our View:No word yet on the exact nature of the injury, or how long it might keep him out.
August 10, 2008 Gabe Kapler hit a walk-off home run to lead Milwaukee to a 5-4 victory over the Washington Nationals.
Our View:Kapler was 0-for-6 in the extra inning affair before that at-bat, but he made his seventh count. However, he does not play regularly enough to warrant fantasy consideration.
May 6, 2008 Gabe Kapler has returned to his reserve role when outfielder Mike Cameron returned from his suspension, according to CBSsports.
Our View:Kapler hasn't started a game since April 26, and only has four at-bats since that date. Kapler was hitting well prior to Cameron's return, as he hit four homers and 13 RBI, but he now holds little fantasy value.
