MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Brewers are expecting a big boost Friday night when Junior Guerra returns to the mound for the first time since Opening Day to face the Arizona Diamondbacks at Miller Park.
However, the Brewers will have to figure out how to snap their season-high, four-game slide without left fielder Ryan Braun after a strained left calf sent him to the disabled list for the second time in a month.
Braun returned from the disabled list Sunday, played two games before a scheduled off-day Wednesday afternoon, then tweaked the leg chasing a pop fly in the third inning Thursday.
