Peralta recalled as Guerra lands on DL

MILWAUKEE -- The Brewers have placed starter Junior Guerra on the 15-day DL with right elbow inflammation in the midst of his impressive rookie campaign. Opening Day starter Wily Peralta has been recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs, manager Craig Counsell announced prior to Monday's game against the Braves at Miller Park.

Guerra experienced inflammation in his throwing elbow the day after his most recent outing on Aug. 3 in San Diego. There is no timetable on the 31-year-old's return, though the Brewers remain optimistic that his stint on the DL could go no more than the minimum 15 days required.
