Brown (shoulder) will be reinstated from the 60-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against the Tigers, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
The right-hander has fully recovered from a Grade 2 shoulder strain and is ready to rejoin the Astros after completing a four-start rehab assignment. Brown built up to five innings and 78 pitches during his final rehab outing with Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday, so he may have only a minor workload restriction in his first start with Houston after the lengthy absence. The 27-year-old was dominant in his first two starts of the season prior to being shelved April 5, giving up just one run on five hits with a 17:6 K:BB across 10.2 innings.
