Brewers reinstate Josh Hader, option Hoby Milner

The Milwaukee Brewers are slowly getting back to full strength after dealing with a COVID-19 outbreak, announcing before this afternoon’s game that Josh Hader is back in action on the active roster. Hoby Milner has been sent to the minors to make room, and to clear a spot on the 40-man roster, John Axford was moved to the 60-day IL.
