The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers might need a few players if their season gets underway this year.

The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel confirmed through a source Thursday that the team's parent club, the Milwaukee Brewers, are among the MLB teams releasing minor league players as their season sits idle due to COVID-19. Most of those players would have been on the chopping block after spring training if it had run its course and before next month's draft. Many other players will continue to be paid their weekly stipend of $400 through June.
