Brewers right-hander Zack Greinke threw 75 pitches in his rehab assignment for Triple-A Nashville on Friday and is on schedule to make his Brewers debut.
His first start for Milwaukee will likely come on May 4 against Atlanta.
"I know he's looking forward to this being his last one there," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said prior to Friday's game. "To get up and down is what's important. I hope he doesn't run through his pitch count to where he's not getting up and down a lot.
"But he feels good. He was a little disappointed in his offspeed stuff the last time, so hopefully he'll get that on track."

Brewers utility man Erick Almonte went home to sleep under supervision after becoming the first player placed on the new seven-day disabled list for concussions.
"We had somebody spend the night with him last night and we didn't get a call, which is good," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said Wednesday. "Any time you have a concussion, the doctors now really don't like you to spend the night [alone]."
Almonte was hit in the forehead by a ball thrown by third baseman Craig Counsell during batting practice Tuesday.
