The Los Angeles Angels have reinstated Anthony Rendon from the 10-day injured list and he is slated to start at third base and bat fourth on Friday night against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks.
Rendon, 33, sustained a bruised left wrist when he was struck by a pitch in the 5-3 win at Texas on June 15.
The former All-Star is batting .248 with just one home run and 21 RBIs in 38 games this season.
Rendon is a career .284 hitter with 157 homers and 656 RBIs in 1,111 games with the Washington Nationals (2013-19) and Angels.
Los Angeles also designated infielder Jake Lamb for assignment, optioned right-hander Andrew Wantz to Triple-A Salt Lake and promoted right-hander Victor Mederos from Salt Lake. Also, infielder Kevin Padlo accepted an outright assignment to Salt Lake.
