Garrett Mitchell’s return to the big leagues is official.
The Brewers activated the center fielder from the 60-day injured list on Thursday, capping a comeback from a labrum tear that originally appeared likely to end his 2023 season.
In a corresponding move, the club designated Brian Anderson for assignment.
