The Brewers activated Houser (illness) from the COVID-19 injured list Sunday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Houser tested positive for the virus Aug. 6 but is back to start Sunday's series finale against the Nationals. There's been no indication he's working on a pitch count; however, manager Craig Counsell figures to be cautious with the righty's workload in his first outing since Aug. 3. The Brewers have yet to announce a corresponding move.
