Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Miley (lat) will return from the injured list to start Saturday's game against the Pirates, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miley proved his health while tallying five strikeouts over five scoreless innings in a rehab outing this past Sunday with Double-A Biloxi. He had posted a solid 3.67 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 41.2 innings (eight starts) with the Brewers before landing on the injured list in mid-May due to a posterior serratus strain around the left side of his rib cage.

Miley (lat) covered five scoreless innings in his rehab start Sunday with Double-A Biloxi, striking out five while scattering four hits and one walk.

EDGE Analysis

In his first game action since landing on the 15-day injured list May 17 with a left lat strain, Miley looked about as sharp as the Brewers could have hoped. He recorded 15 outs on 65 pitches, throwing 44 of them for strikes. Though Miley could be an option to make his next start with the big club as soon as Friday versus Pittsburgh, the Brewers may be inclined to have the veteran lefty get further stretched out with one more rehab outing on the farm, especially with the back-end members of the big-league rotation pitching well at the moment.

Miley (lat) is scheduled to make a rehab start next Sunday with Double-A Biloxi, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miley has been on the shelf since mid-May with a posterior serratus strain around the left side of his rib cage, but he appears to have made good progress in his recovery and now looks ready to face hitters in a competitive setting. According to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com, Miley believes he'll need only one rehab start before he's ready to rejoin the Milwaukee rotation, so he could be activated from the 15-day IL during the Brewers' three-game series with the Pirates that begins June 16.

Miley (lat/rib) threw a bullpen session Thursday without issue, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miley was diagnosed in mid-May with a posterior serratus strain near the left side of his rib cage and given a 6-to-8 week timetable, but the veteran southpaw told reporters Friday that he believes it will wind up being just a four-week overall IL stay. That would put him on track to return to the Brewers' rotation around the middle of June. He had pitched to a 3.67 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 24:9 K:BB across 41.2 innings (eight starts) prior to the injury.

Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Thursday that Miley (lat/rib) could soon begin throwing bullpen sessions, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miley was initially expected to miss upwards of eight weeks when he was diagnosed in mid-May with a posterior serratus strain around the left side of his rib cage, but he seems to be recovering at a fairly quick pace. "It's going really well," Counsell told reporters. "He feels great. We're trying to push this along with Wade and so far, all signs are good." The veteran southpaw might be an option again for Milwaukee's rotation before the end of June.

Miley (lat/rib) is likely to be sidelined 6-8 weeks, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miley was placed on the injured list Wednesday and has been diagnosed with a posterior serratus strain around the left side of his rib cage. The best-case scenario calls for him to return to Milwaukee's starting rotation by the end of June. He had registered a 3.67 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 24:9 K:BB through 41.2 innings (eight starts) this season.

Milwaukee placed Miley on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a strained left lat.

EDGE Analysis

Miley suffered the injury in the second inning of his start in Tuesday's win over the Cardinals. The Brewers haven't offered up a timetable for Miley's return, as the veteran left-hander had to be sent back to Milwaukee to undergo further testing. Reliever Jake Cousins was called up from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move.

Manager Craig Counsell said after Tuesday's win over the Cardinals that Miley (lat) will require a trip to the injured list, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran left-hander exited Tuesday's start in St. Louis after just five outs due to a lat strain, and he'll spend at least the next couple weeks on the shelf. Miley is returning to Milwaukee to undergo further evaluation, which could reveal the severity of the injury.

Miley left Tuesday's start against the Cardinals with a left lat strain, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. He allowed one run over 1.2 innings with one walk and no strikeouts before exiting.

EDGE Analysis

Miley left the start with a trainer in the second inning and was replaced by Elvis Peguero. While the veteran southpaw should be considered day-to-day at this point, a strained lat is very likely going to lead to a trip to the injured list. At minimum, Miley's availability for his next scheduled start over the weekend against the Rays would appear to be in considerable doubt.

Miley (3-2) took the loss Wednesday as the Brewers were routed 8-1 by the Dodgers, surrendering seven runs on six hits -- including three home runs -- and two walks over five-plus innings. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

The 36-year-old lefty held Los Angeles off the scoreboard for three innings before the wheels came off the fourth, as Freddie Freeman and Will Smith launched back-to-back solo shots to open the scoring. Miley hadn't given up more than three runs or served up more than one homer in any of his six prior starts this season, so for now this can be chalked up to an off afternoon. He'll take a 3.60 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 24:8 K:BB through 40 innings into his next outing, likely to come early next week in St. Louis.
