After Rickie Weeks hobbled off the field in July against the Cubs, it appeared that he may be gone for the season. But now, it seems that Milwaukee will have him back for the stretch run.

Weeks took ground balls today at Miller Park before the Brewers 2-1 victory. He wore a brace on the injured left ankle.

Ron Roenicke said there is no timetable for the All Star second baseman’s return. Hopefully, Weeks can return by early September at the latest.

The team has won 16 of their last 18 without Weeks
