          Daniel Vogelbach started at first base and Luis Urias was at shortstop for the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night, both ending the evening with a .208 batting average. That wasn't exactly so exciting for either the Brewers or fantasy managers. On Monday night, against the San Diego Padres, the Brewers figure to feature Keston Hiura and Willy Adames in those two spots. Yeah, that seems like quite the upgrade.
