Dodgers' Maddux Bruns: Activated from MiLB injured list
Rotowire
Bruns (back) was activated from the 60-day injured list June 15.
Bruns has made two starts for High-A Great Lakes since his return from a back injury, allowing two runs on four hits and five walks while striking out six over 5.1 innings. It seems the club is content to bring him along slowly in his first few appearances, as he hasn't worked more than three innings yet.

Dodgers' Maddux Bruns: Bumped to High-A
Rotowire
Bruns was promoted from Single-A Rancho Cucamonga to High-A Great Lakes on Thursday.
The 20-year-old southpaw made a return trip to Single-A to start the year and showed significant gains over 21 innings in six starts. Bruns' 14.8 percent walk rate was still quite high, but it represented a significant improvement for him, and his 1.29 ERA and 37.5 percent strikeout rate warranted a bump in competition.
