Weeks back for Jackie Robinson Day

While Trevor Hoffman gets loose in the outfield prior to what’s supposed to be his first mound session in more than a month, here are the lineups for tonight’s game against the Reds:

REDS
Willy Taveras  CF
Chris Dickerson  LF
Joey Votto  1B
Brandon Phillips  2B
Jay Bruce  RF
Edwin Encarnacion  3B
Ramon Hernandez  C
Alex Gonzalez  SS
Micah Owings  RHP

BREWERS
Rickie Weeks  2B
Corey Hart  RF
Ryan Braun  LF
Prince Fielder  1B
J.J. Hardy SS
Mike Cameron  CF
Bill Hall 3B
Jason Kendall  C
Braden Looper RHP

Weeks is back in action after sitting out Tuesday night against Bronson Arroyo, who has owned Weeks throughout his career. Otherwise the lineup is the same as usual for manager Ken Macha.

I’ll pass along some sort of update on Hoffman after he’s done throwing. He’s long-tossing with bullpen catcher Marcus Hanel at the moment.
