Jeffress may start Friday's game against the Marlins, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Craig Counsell hasn't officially named a starter, but Eric Thames let it slip that Jeffress may be first out of the gates in what is expected to be a bullpen game for the Brewers. He owns a 2.70 ERA and 16:11 K:BB in 16.2 innings since joining Milwaukee at the trade deadline. He'll likely top out around 50 pitches Friday.
