Zach Braddock didn't dress for the Brewers on Sunday and assistant general manager Gord Ash said he couldn't comment on the situation. Braddock was in camp but didn't join fellow pitchers for morning workouts. Braddock had some sleep issues last year and has struggled with personal issues.

Zach Braddock was send home from Brewers' camp on Wednesday due to illness. The Brewers naturally didn't want the rest of the clubhouse getting sick, but he should be back with the club in the next couple of days. Braddock posted a 7.27 ERA and an 18/11 K/BB ratio over 17 1/3 innings in 2011 while dealing with a sleep disorder and personal issues.

Zach Braddock said Monday that he looks forward to competing for a bullpen spot after dealing with a sleep disorder and personal issues last year. Braddock had a 7.27 ERA and an 18/11 K/BB ratio over 17 1/3 innings last season and didn't throw another pitch after being placed on the inactive list in July. "I feel great," said Braddock. "I just had to take some time and address things. I went to Triple-A for a little bit, then I did shut it down and concentrated on some personal things." Braddock had a 2.94 ERA over 46 relief appearances during his rookie campaign in 2010, but he would likely need a very strong spring to win a spot on the Opening Day roster.

Zach Braddock was placed on the inactive list with Triple-A Nashville due to more problems with his sleep disorder. "All I can say is that he is undergoing treatment for previously diagnosed issues," said Brewers assistant general manager Gord Ash. The left-hander missed about a month earlier this season due to the sleep disorder and was demoted last month after being late on multiple occasions. There's no timetable for his return.

Brewers optioned LHP Zach Braddock to Triple-A Nashville. Braddock posted a 19.80 in eight games since being recalled from Nashville in late June, though it's not clear if his sleep disorder was an issue this time around. He's a talented lefty and should be back at some point.

Brewers recalled LHP Zach Braddock from Triple-A Nashville. Braddock was sent down to the minors earlier this month after his sleep disorder caused him to be late on multiple occasions. Hopefully it won't be an issue moving forward. The 23-year-old left-hander has pitched well for the Brewers this season, posting a 2.19 ERA and 13/6 K/BB ratio over 12 1/3 innings. He could be especially useful against the Yankees this week.

The Brewers could promote Zach Braddock from Triple-A Nashville Monday. Braddock was sent down earlier this month after his sleep disorder led to him being tardy on multiple occasions. But, manager Ron Roenicke said the left-hander is over the issue now and is available if called upon. Braddock has a 2.19 ERA and 1.14 WHIP while striking out over a batter per inning in 17 games this season for the Brew Crew.

Brewers manager Ron Roenicke confirmed that Zach Braddock is still dealing with his sleeping disorder, which is why he was optioned to Triple-A Thursday. "Zach is a good guy and works hard; he's trying to manage this stuff," Roenicke said. "We need him to go somewhere where he can just get everything right. Once he gets everything right, he was throwing the ball good, and we'd like to see him back here." There's no timetable for the lefty's return. Daniel Ray Herrera, who replaced Braddock on the roster, served up a three-run homer to Kosuke Fukudome in his first appearance with the Brewers Thursday.
