Nelson (head) will not make his next start Tuesday against the Cubs, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Even though Nelson escaped with just a bruise after getting hit by a line drive Thursday against the Cardinals, manager Craig Counsell decided to skip his start due to precautionary reasons saying, "It's great to have him back out here. He's doing great. He's chomping at the bit, obviously. He'll be a spectator until Monday. After he sees the doctor on Monday, we'll have a better idea of what's going to happen the rest of the year." The Brewers have yet to announce a starter to replace Nelson, although more details should arise as it gets closer to Tuesday.
