The Milwaukee Brewers have been without pitcher Adrian Houser due to a groin injury since the tail end of spring training and most recently they lost Matt Bush due to rotator cuff tendinitis. Recovery wise, these two pitchers are on opposite ends of the spectrum. Adrian Houser is currently on a Minor League rehab stint and Matt Bush is just starting the recovery process.
Here is where both of these Milwaukee Brewers pitchers are in the recovery process and what a timeline for return may look like.
On Sunday Adrian Houser threw 69 pitches over 4.2 innings of work for the Nashville Sounds. He gave up six hits with three of them being infield hits, struck out two batters, and didn’t allow any earned runs. The plan currently is for him to make one more start in Triple-A and then re-access.
Plan is for Adrian Houser to make another start at Class AAA Nashville and then reassess. Reports were positive after yesterday’s outing.

For Matt Bush, he will begin a two to four week period of not throwing. His shoulder became painful after a blow up outing against the Boston Red Sox and his velocity has dropped since last year. He has not seen a doctor yet but the fact he could not throw for a month implies that this may be a lengthy recovery process.
Plan is to shut Matt Bush down for 2-4 weeks to rest. Is yet to see the doctor. Velo drop was apparent since last year and Bush said that along with shoulder pain let him know something wasn’t right.
