Brewers activate Grant Anderson from injured list and send Craig Yoho to minors

By Canadian Press on September 8, 2025.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Right-hander Grant Anderson has come off the injured list to boost a Milwaukee Brewers bullpen that has been dealing with plenty of medical issues.

The Brewers announced before their Monday game with the Texas Rangers that they had activated Anderson and optioned right-hander Craig Yoho to Triple-A Nashville.

Anderson last pitched for Milwaukee on Aug. 23 before going on the injured list with tendinitis in his right ankle.

The 28-year-old Anderson owns a 2-5 record and 2.87 earned run average in 57 appearances. He has struck out 66 over 62 2/3 innings.

The Brewers still have All-Star closer Trevor Megill (right flexor), left-hander DL Hall (right oblique) and right-handers Nick Mears (back) and Shelby Miller (right elbow) on the injured list.

They have overcome these injuries well enough to own the best record in the major leagues. The Brewers are coming off a road sweep of Pittsburgh, and they lead the NL Central by 7 1/2 games over the Chicago Cubs.

Yoho, 25, is 0-0 with a 7.27 ERA in eight games with Milwaukee. He is 4-1 with a 1.04 ERA and seven saves in 39 games with Nashville.
