Green agreed to a minor league contract with the Brewers on Monday.
Once considered one of the Brewers' better prospects, Green's star has faded over the last few seasons due to injuries. He posted a .659 OPS in 53 games with Triple-A Nashville in 2014.
Fri Feb 21 201409:08Taylor Green playing third base this spring
Taylor Green is focusing on playing third base in Brewers' camp.
Most of Green's experience is at third, but he has also played plenty of first and second base in the majors and minors. He missed all of last season after suffering a hip injury in March and was removed from the 40-man roster in October before being re-signed. Green likely has an uphill battle to secure an Opening Day roster spot.

Sun Mar 24 201312:17Green, Bianchi might not be ready for opener
Brewers manager Ron Roenicke isn't sure Taylor Green (hip) and Jeff Bianchi (hip) will be ready in time for Opening Day.
"Bianchi and Green are two guys that we really thought were strongly going to be on our team," said Roenicke. "We figured Taylor was going to be in this mix so we've had to change our thinking a little bit in case he isn't ready. At this point, I don't know if he will be." Roenicke indicated that the club might seek bench help from outside the organization if Green and/or Bianchi need DL time.

Thu Mar 21 201317:33Green to miss a few days after tweaking hip
Taylor Green tweaked his hip while taking swings prior to Tuesday's game and is expected to miss a few days.
Green is confident that it isn't a big deal, but he could begin the season on the disabled list if the symptoms linger. The 26-year-old entered spring training with a chance to win a bench spot, but he's hitting just .139 (5-for-36) with 12 strikeouts in 15 games.

Sat Feb 16 201317:04Taylor Green fine after fainting spell
Taylor Green fainted after giving two vials of blood on Saturday in Brewers camp.
Green is fine, and admitted to reporters that fainting is a common thing when he gives blood or is given shots. With Mat Gamel's health looking uncertain, Green could position himself to be the Brewers' early-season starting first baseman with a strong effort this spring.

Sat Sep 22 201216:20Taylor Green smashes pinch-hit 2-run shot
Taylor Green smashed a pinch-hit two-run homer in a losing effort against the Nationals on Saturday.
The young third-sacker has had a disappointing season, hitting just .194/.270/.357 with three homers and 14 RBI through his first 98 at-bats. He certainly made good on his only chance in this one though, launching a Christian Garcia fastball into the seats in right field.

Thu Sep 6 201211:56Brewers recall Taylor Green
Brewers recalled INF Taylor Green from Triple-A Nashville.
Green will give the Brewers additional depth at third base while Aramis Ramirez recovers from a minor lower back injury. The 25-year-old has posted a weak .198/.287/.358 batting line in 44 games with Milwaukee this season and is doubtful to carry any sort of fantasy value.

Sun Jul 8 201219:19Brewers option Green to Triple-A Nashville
Brewers optioned INF Taylor Green to Triple-A Nashville.
Green hit just .198 with two home runs and 10 RBI over 81 at-bats. Milwaukee didn't indicate a corresponding roster move, but indications are that Green will be replaced by another position player after the All-Star break.

Fri May 11 201217:18Green starting at first base Friday
Taylor Green will make his second straight start at first base Friday against the Cubs.
Travis Ishikawa got the first crack at replacing Mat Gamel (knee), but he's hitting just .200 (8-for-40) on the year. Green hasn't played much in the big leagues, but has shown pop and patience on the minor league level. Assuming the Brewers don't eventually sign Derrek Lee, he could end up being a sneaky pickup in NL-only formats.

Wed May 9 201210:53Green starting at first base Wednesday
Taylor Green will make his second start of the season at first base Wednesday against the Reds.
Travis Ishikawa went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts on Tuesday night and is hitting just .200 (8-for-40) on the year, so Green could garner more playing time at first base in the days ahead. Of course, it's also possible the Brewers will get desperate and sign free agent Derrek Lee.

Sun May 6 201213:20Taylor Green gets start at 1B
Taylor Green is making his first career start at first base Sunday.
Good news. Green doesn't have a ton of experience at the position in the minors, either, but he certainly offers more fantasy upside than Travis Ishikawa and Brooks Conrad. The Brewers are rumored to have interest in free agent Derrek Lee, but Green could win up running away with the job if he gets off to a good start.
