Riley Greene To Run Bases On Sunday
4 months agoDetroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene (hamstring) is set to run the bases on Sunday as part of his recovery from a right-hamstring strain. This will mark the first time Greene has ran the bases since he was placed on the 10-day IL on July 26th. In conjunction with running, Greene has also been completing on-field defensive drills and is hitting daily. This marks a good sign for the 23-year-old's recovery, though no official timeline has been set for his return. Detroit has greatly missed Greene's bat, hitting for just a 71 wRC+ as a team after his last game on July 25th. Parker Meadows and Ryan Vilade have been picking up extra playing time in the outfield with Greene out, though neither is a viable fantasy option. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Greene's status and prepare for him to return for the fantasy playoffs.
