Harrison Bader is expected to be activated from the injured list ahead of Wednesday's game. He's been on the shelf since April 17 due to a hamstring strain. (Jenifer Langosch on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Bader's return will create something of a log jam in the Cardinals' outfield. Bader was off to a rough start at the plate before hitting the IL, but St. Louis remains inclined to play him for his excellent center field defense. However, Marcell Ozuna, Dexter Fowler, and Jose Martinez have all been hitting well in Bader's absence, so it will be interesting to see how the playing time is divvied up. For now, Ozuna would seem to be the only one assured of everyday playing time.
