Yost said he never heard from the San Francisco Giants on Thursday, a sign that Barry Bonds would not be ready to play in Friday's game at Scottsdale Stadium.
The Giants want to use Bonds as a designated hitter during home games while the outfielder recovers from knee surgery. But the opposing team has to say yes to the league-bending experiment, and the Brewers seemed hesitant.
"Nobody's called. Nobody's said nothing!" Yost said. "I'm going to have a pitcher in there."
Gary Glover is scheduled to start for Milwaukee against Giants right-hander Brett Tomko.
Tomko was roughed up a bit versus the White Sox in Tucson on March 7, but he still picked up the win after giving up three hits, including a homer, and two runs over two innings.
This will be San Francisco's first game against Milwaukee this spring.
Among the hottest regulars entering the game will be Pedro Feliz, who is batting .450 with a club-high 14 total bases, and Edgardo Alfonzo, who is hitting .364 with a pair of RBIs.
Deivi Cruz has been strong as a part-time starter, notching a .417 average and a .750 slugging percentage

The Braves will head across town to face Roy Oswalt and the Astros during a Friday afternoon game at Osceola County Stadium. Smoltz is scheduled to throw three innings. New closer Dan Kolb will make his second appearance of the spring.
Smoltz will be looking to continue the starters' scoreless streak and further build up endurance in his arm. As he builds innings, he and the Braves will have a better idea of what pitfalls might be ahead as he transitions from a closer to a starter.
This will be Smoltz's only road start during the Grapefruit League season
