Grandal (knee) was activated off the injured list as expected Friday.

Grandal has been out since early July while recovering from knee surgery. Prior to his injury, he owned a very strange yet productive .188/.388/.436 slash line. He walked nearly twice as often as he recorded a hit (60 to 34), but over 40 percent of his hits were homers (14). He's been a similar low-average, high-walk, high-power hitter throughout much of his career, but he'll need to do less damage to fantasy teams' batting averages down the stretch if he's to be a quality option in standard setups. Zack Collins was optioned to clear space for him on the roster, so Seby Zavala will serve as Grandal's backup for now.
