Varland (hand) is set to make rehab appearances Thursday and Saturday with High-A Wisconsin, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
If both those outings go smoothly, Varland will then travel to Colorado with the Brewers next week and should be activated from the 15-day injured list at some point during their three-game series at Coors Field that begins May 2. He's been sidelined since April 15 due to a right hand contusion.
