Downie (upper body) will return to the lineup Thursday night against Detroit, Sarah McLellan of the Arizona Republic reports.
The writing was on the wall that Downie would be activated following previous reports that Arizona sent winger Craig Cunningham to the minors. Downie missed the past 10 games with the upper-body ailment, but the two-way forward is evidently healthy again and should resume his hard-hitting ways as the team's loose cannon. Before his latest injury, Downie generated 19 hits in 14 games.
