Perkins (calf) will take batting practice Tuesday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Assuming Perkins is able to avoid any setbacks, the plan is for him to return to the Brewers ahead of Thursday's series finale against the Cardinals. With Christian Yelich (back) set to miss the rest of the season, the 27-year-old Perkins will have more opportunities to start in Milwaukee's outfield, likely filling in for Sal Frelick or Garrett Mitchell against left-handed starters.
