Milwaukee Brewers: Jimmy Nelson Suffers Minor Setback

It’s been a long and winding road back for Jimmy Nelson, who suffered a shoulder injury in September 2017 that sidelined him for the entire 2018 season. With high hopes entering 2019 for Nelson, the news was not what Milwaukee Brewers fans were looking for.

Brewers are backing off RHP Jimmy Nelson for a few days after experiencing a minor setback, manager Craig Counsell said. “A little discomfort.”

Nelson reported some discomfort with his arm over the weekend. The Brewers are going to give him a couple days of rest before having him throw again.
