Betancourt (illness) was activated from the 15-day DL on Friday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports. Vertigo symptoms pushed Betancourt to the disabled list earlier this month, but he will be back in the bullpen Friday after missing just a little over the minimum 15 days required by his DL stint. Betancourt was seeing some high-leverage work before hitting the shelf (six holds, one save), but the Rockies may opt to deploy him in the middle innings initially upon his return.
