Ellington was recalled from Triple-A New Orleans on Saturday, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.
The right-hander will return for his second stint with the big club this season, replacing Jose Urena on the active roster. Ellington fared well during his initial callup, allowing just one earned run on eight hits while striking out 11 over 11.1 innings (10 appearances), but he'll have a tough time cracking the back end of the bullpen at any point this year.
