The Diamondbacks reinstated Moreno (adductor) from the 10-day injured list Sunday.
Moreno won't enter the lineup Sunday against the Brewers in his return to the 28-man active roster, but the 24-year-old will be available off the bench after completing his recovery from the left adductor strain that had kept him on the shelf for nearly five weeks. Though he didn't go on a minor-league rehab assignment prior to being activated, Moreno was able to prove his health by playing in simulated games at the Diamondbacks' spring facility in Arizona in recent days. He could be eased back into the fold with a lighter catching load initially, but the expectation is that Moreno will be ready to serve as the club's No. 1 backstop by the time the postseason gets underway.
