The Padres are activating right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr. for Monday’s game against the Detroit Tigers, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported.
Tatis, 25, has not played for the Padres since June 21 due to a stress reaction in his right femur.
The two-time All-Star is batting .279 with 14 homers and 36 RBIs in 80 games this season.
Tatis began taking live at-bats at the Padres’ spring training complex last week in Peoria, Ariz.
San Diego has gone 38-21 without Tatis and was tied for the top wild-card spot in the National League heading into Monday’s home game against the Tigers.
Tatis is a career .280 hitter with 120 homers, 309 RBIs and 89 stolen bases in 494 games since making his Padres debut in 2019.
