Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jhoulys Chacin (back) threw a bullpen session on Tuesday and is expected to return to the rotation for the series with the San Diego Padres starting on Monday.
Chacin last pitched on May 31 due to a back injury, but if he makes it through Tuesday's session without any setbacks, he will be ready to roll early next week.
Chacin has posted a 5.74 ERA and 1.48 WHIP while striking out 44 and walking 29 in 58 innings pitched this season.
