The Brewers on Saturday activated Ryan Braun from the disabled list and optioned catcher Jacob Nottingham to Triple-A Colorado Springs. Braun was in the cleanup spot against the Dodgers, playing first base.
Braun missed nearly two weeks with a back strain. Braun is hitting a career-low .235 with 10 home runs and 35 RBIs in 71 games this season.
Nottingham, the Brewers' No. 25 prospect, went 4-for-20 in seven games in his first Major League stint.
The A's have acquired reliever Jeurys Familia from the Mets for two prospects and international slot money.
