Triple-A Syracuse reinstated Gilbert (hamstring) from its 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Before sitting out Wednesday's game, Gilbert returned to the Syracuse lineup in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to Buffalo, starting in left field while going 1-for-5 at the plate. Gilbert was back in action with Syracuse for the first time since April 6 after missing more than three months while recovering from a left hamstring strain. He made six rehab appearances in the rookie-level Florida Complex League and with Single-A St. Lucie prior to being activated.
