Homers in return Herrera (elbow) went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in the Phillies' 4-3 los to the Padres.

Impact A sore elbow prevented Herrera from playing in Friday's series opener, but the solo blast -- his 10th of the season -- in his return to the lineup a day later suggests he'll be fine moving forward. He'll start again in Sunday's series finale, manning left field and batting leadoff.

Good to go Wednesday Herrera (ankle) is starting in center field and batting leadoff Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

Impact Herrera was withheld from Tuesday's lineup due to soreness in his right ankle, but it appears to be a minor injury since he still appeared as a pinch hitter and is back in the starting nine a day later. The 29-year-old has a .318/.380/.500 slash line through 14 games in August.

Managing ankle injury Herrera is not starting Tuesday against the Diamondbacks because of soreness in his right ankle, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Impact Herrera missed the Aug. 8 game against the Mets with a sore right Achilles, so it seems possible that the ankle soreness could be related to that previous issue. It doesn't sound like the Phillies are overly concerned about the problem, and additional updates in the near future should make the severity of the injury more clear. Herrera can be considered day-to-day for the time being.
