Brewers' Matt Albers: To throw bullpen Friday

Albers (shoulder) is slated to throw a bullpen session Friday and Sunday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

If Albers doesn't feel any discomfort during his scheduled throwing sessions, he'll likely progress to a stint in the minors early next week, with a return possible shortly after the All-Star break. He last pitched June 11 against Chicago before landing on the disabled list with shoulder soreness.
