Set to begin rehab assignment
Cortes (elbow) threw two simulated innings Friday and is expected to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Cortes continues to progress in his recovery from a left elbow strain that landed him on the injured list in early April. He was cleared to throw bullpen sessions in early June, and after completing a 25-pitch sim game Monday, he repeated the activity four days later. With Cortes checking out fine coming out of the workout, he's ready to take the final step in the recovery process by going out on a rehab assignment. Given the length of his absence, Cortes will need multiple rehab starts before returning from the 60-day injured list and slotting into the Milwaukee rotation, likely at some point shortly after the All-Star break.
