Rehabbing Brewers Mitchell and Ashby visit team; Twins face Brewers with high stakes

Outfielder Garrett Mitchell and left-hander Aaron Ashby are eyeing a late-season return for the Milwaukee Brewers as they extend their division lead. Mitchell, who suffered a complete tear of the labrum in his left shoulder, is considered ahead of schedule and hopes to be ready for games during the final Triple-A homestand. Ashby, recovering from an injury, has been working on his mechanics and is gradually regaining his form. The Brewers, currently 3.5 games ahead of the second-place Cubs, are pushing for a postseason berth and are optimistic about the potential contributions of Mitchell and Ashby.
