Milone will start for the Brewers on Saturday, April 8 against the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

With Junior Guerra headed to the DL for an extended period with a right calf strain, it appears Milone is in line to replace him in the rotation. Manager Craig Counsell confirmed the 30-year-old would start in Guerra's place Saturday, though he didn't indicate whether this would be more than a one-time thing, especially with the return of Matt Garza from the 10-day DL looming.
