Manager Craig Counsell said Taillon (calf) will make a third rehab start with Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday before returning from the 15-day injured list, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

The veteran right-hander allowed one earned run and threw 78 pitches over 4.2 innings during the second start of his rehab assignment last Friday, and he'll make one more start in the minors before returning to the Cubs. Assuming all goes well Wednesday, Taillon will rejoin the Cubs early next week to make a start at Wrigley Field against the Brewers, who have gone 18-4 since the All-Star break and own the best record in baseball.
