Brewers may be best served by slow playing Lorenzo Cain's return to action

News recently came out that veteran Lorenzo Cain has been hampered with a minor quad injury, causing him to miss every Spring Training game for the Milwaukee Brewers so far this year. Despite the setback, Cain says he expects to be ready by Opening Day; however, the best thing for the team may be to slowly ease him back and shoot for his 2021 regular season debut to happen a week or two after the first game.

Though manager Craig Counsell said Cain is the starting center fielder, he is also about to turn 35 and wasn’t going to play all 162 contests this season anyway.
