Milwaukee Brewers 2006 first round draft pick Jeremy Jeffress returns to baseball with the Brewers Class (A) affiliate, the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. Jeffress begins his comeback from a 100-game suspension for testing positive for marijuana use a third time.
The 22 year old Jeffress was eligible to return a couple of weeks ago, but was slowed by forearm stiffness in extended spring training. He’ll shift to a relief role to keep him more focused and engaged on a daily basis.
