Does light running Saturday Olivares (quadriceps) did some light running on the field Saturday, Lynn Worthy of The Kansas City Star reports.
Impact Olivares sustained a right quadriceps strain in early May, and he isn't expected to be ready to return to game action until approximately late June. He'll presumably work on ramping up his activity level in the coming weeks prior to returning from the injured list.

Likely to miss around six weeks The Royals anticipate Olivares will miss around six weeks after he was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday with a strained right quadriceps, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
Impact Olivares had recently moved into an everyday role in the outfield in a domino effect of Adalberto Mondesi's (knee) season-ending injury, but his productive run as a regular in the lineup -- he had gone 11-for-22 with two runs, two RBI and a stolen base in his last seven games -- came to an abrupt end due to the quad issue. While Olivares could recapture steady at-bats once he's eventually healthy again, the projected six-week absence will make it tough for most fantasy managers to justify holding him during his prolonged stint on the shelf. MJ Melendez looks like he'll be the main beneficiary sans Olivares, as he drew starts while the latter was sidelined for the past two contests.

Lands on IL The Royals placed Olivares on the 10-day injured list Monday with a strained right quadriceps.
Impact Kansas City hasn't provided an update on the extent of the quad strain Olivares suffered in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Orioles, but his move to the IL a day later is an indication that the injury is more than a day-to-day situation. The injury comes at an inconvenient time for Olivares, who was in the midst of a seven-game hitting streak and had gained traction as the Royals' everyday right fielder and leadoff man. His move to the IL is expected to open up more opportunities for the likes of MJ Melendez and Kyle Isbel.
