July 8, 2025 4:05 PM : Cortes (elbow) will continue his rehab assignment Thursday with High-A Wisconsin, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.
Analysis: The veteran left-hander covered three scoreless innings during his first rehab outing with Triple-A Nashville last week, and he'll attempt to build up to around the 65-pitch mark Thursday. Cortes is likely to make an additional rehab start before potentially rejoining Milwaukee's rotation shortly after the All-Star break.
