Bryce Harper Injury: Could be activated Monday

Harper (wrist) could be activated from the 10-day injured list when the Phillies begin a homestand Monday versus the Padres, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Harper took 75 swings off a high-velocity pitching machine Thursday and is slated to hit outside on the field Friday. He could face live pitching after that. While Harper doesn't appear on track to be activated over the weekend during the Phillies' series in Atlanta, he appears poised to skip a rehab assignment and return early next week if he continues to trend in the right direction.
