Draws back into lineup Herrera will start in center field and bat sixth Sunday against Atlanta.

Impact Since being reinstated from the injured list Thursday after missing about two weeks with left ankle tendinitis, Herrera started once in the Phillies' three games. However, with his primary competition for reps in center field (Travis Jankowski) landing on the COVID-19-related injured list Sunday, the lefty-hitting Herrera should have a clear path to regular reps in center field versus right-handed pitching. The righty-hitting Luke Williams -- who started the past two games when Atlanta brought lefties Drew Smyly and Max Fried to the hill -- could serve as a short-side platoon mate for Herrera.

Luke Williams will be the starter in center field.
