Jose Bautista expected back Thursday

Jose Bautista is expected to return from the 15-day DL and be slotted back into the lineup tonight versus the LA Angels. Bautista missed the minimum amount of time with a knee sprain after being shelved on August 10th.
Fantasy Impact:
Bautista has had a poor contract-year season, with just 15 HR and 48 RBI over 80 games, and has seen his strikeout rate jump from 15.9 to 17.7%. Tonight wouldn't be the best night to start Bautista, either, as he's just 1-for-15 with six strikeouts versus Angels starter Jered Weaver.
