  Harrison Bader Making Yankees Debut Tuesday

  New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader (foot) has been activated from the 60-day injured list and is making his debut with the team on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates and right-hander Luis Ortiz. Bader is starting in center field and is batting seventh. The 28-year-old is mostly known for his defense in center field and his speed on the basepaths. He should be the team's primary center fielder for the rest of the regular season and the playoffs. Before getting injured in 246 at-bats with the St. Louis Cardinals, Bader hit .256/.303/.370 with five home runs, 21 RBI, 35 runs scored and 15 stolen bases in 72 games. He should be returned to lineups for fantasy managers still in need of stolen bases, although it remains to be seen how much he'll run coming off his foot injury.

  Harrison Bader Likely To Return Tuesday

  New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader (foot) will likely be activated from his minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday, according to skipper Aaron Boone. Bader hasn't played in a major-league game since June 26 when he was with the St. Louis Cardinals. He was put in a protective walking boot after going on a minor league rehab assignment with St. Louis' Triple-A affiliate on July 22 and was then moved to the 60-day injured list on Aug. 25. The 28-year-old will give the Yankees defense a boost in center field as well as on the basepaths when he finally makes his team debut. In 246 at-bats with the Cardinals before his foot injury, Bader was hitting .256/.303/.370 with five home runs, 21 RBI, 35 runs scored and 15 stolen bases.

  Harrison Bader Could Be Activated By Tuesday

  New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader (heel) is planning to play the outfield in rehab games on Saturday and Sunday. Bader has been down with plantar fasciitis since June, back when he was a member of the St. Louis Cardinals. If all goes smoothly for Bader, he could be on track to be activated from the injured list by Tuesday. Bader is hitting .256 with five homers, 35 runs, 21 RBI, and 15 steals over 246 at-bats.

  Harrison Bader Getting Closer To Rehab Assignment

  New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that outfielder Harrison Bader (foot) will be doing a "full ramp-up" on Monday, and there is a target for his minor league rehab assignment to begin on Sept. 13, but the date could be moved up. Bader started hitting off a tee last week after recently resuming baseball activities. The 28-year-old hasn't played since June 26 and has yet to make his Yankees debut after being acquired from the St. Louis Cardinals at the Aug. 2 trade deadline. He'll offer the Yankees plenty of speed on the base paths and excellent defense in center field, but by the time he returns, he'll be of little use in fantasy to close out the regular season. In 246 at-bats in 2022, he's hit .256/.303/.370 with five home runs, 21 RBI, 35 runs scored and 15 stolen bases.

  Harrison Bader Begins Hitting Off Tee

  New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader (foot) has resumed hitting off a tee and is in a "10-day ramp-up" to begin playing in minor league games, according to skipper Aaron Boone. Bader is slowly recovering and could make his debut for the Yankees in the middle of September. It's good news for the Bombers with the postseason approaching, but Bader is unlikely to help fantasy managers much the rest of the way. The 28-year-old played in 72 games for the St. Louis Cardinals before being dealt to New York at the Aug. 2 trade deadline, and he was hitting .256/.303/.370 with five home runs, 21 RBI, 35 runs scored and 15 stolen bases in 264 plate appearances. When he's ready to play, he'll certainly give the Yankees a boost with his defense in center field and with his speed on the base paths.

  Harrison Bader Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

  New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader (foot) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday. He has been sidelined since June 27 and is on track to return to the lineup sometime in September. The move to the 60-day injured list shouldn't impact his recovery timetable. The 28-year-old was hitting .256/.303/.370 with five home runs, 21 RBI, 35 runs scored and 15 stolen bases in 72 games for the St. Louis Cardinals before being traded to the Yankees. Bader will begin a rehab assignment soon and will provide the Yankees outfield depth once activated. Fantasy managers searching for speed should continue to stash Bader in all league formats.

  Harrison Bader Ditches Walking Boot

  New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader (foot) wasn't wearing a walking boot on his right foot on Tuesday. Bader has been out for six weeks while recovering from a season-long bout of plantar fasciitis. He's been on the injured list since July 26 and won't be back until sometime in September. "I definitely think I'll be here the first week or so of September. But I don't want to get ahead of myself and I don't want to get away from what they have (set up for me)," Bader said. Before he was shut down, the 28-year-old was hitting .256/.303/.370 with five home runs, 21 RBI, 35 runs scored and 15 stolen bases in 72 games for the St. Louis Cardinals. The speedster should be an upgrade over Aaron Hicks once he's healthy, and he's a major stolen base asset in fantasy, although it remains to be seen how much he'll run once he's back.
