Houston Astros right-hander Brandon Backe was activated from the 15-day disabled list Friday and will start Tuesday in his first appearance in almost a year following elbow ligament replacement surgery. Backe’s first start of 2007 will come in Milwaukee and will be three days shy of a year since his elbow was operated on last Sept.
