Bianchi (elbow) was activated from the 60-day DL on Thursday.

Analysis:

The Brewers had a couple spots on the 40-man roster open up, with Alfredo Figaro claimed off waivers by the Rangers and Matt Pagnozzi outrighted, so they went ahead and activated Bianchi. The 27-year-old Bianchi was limited to a total of 53 games between Triple-A Nashville and the majors this season due to a right elbow strain, but assuming he's healthy, the former second-round pick will likely compete for a utility infield role come spring training.
