Chris Heisey went 2-for-3 with a homer against the Brewers on Monday. Heisey has collected hits in five of his six starts since he came off the DL on June 25, and all but one of those hits have gone for extra bases (two homers, four doubles). It looks like he's overtaking Derrick Robinson and Xavier Paul for playing time in left field, so he's a nice option in NL-only leagues, at least until Ryan Ludwick returns.

Chris Heisey went 1-for-3 with a home run as the Reds beat the Giants on Wednesday. Heisey, who recently came off the disabled list on June 25, launched his third homer of the year in the sixth inning after driving in a run on a sacrifice fly earlier in the game. The homer was his first since April 23, and he's still batting only .186 this year.

Reds activated OF Chris Heisey from the 15-day disabled list. Heisey is in the lineup in the designated hitter spot on Tuesday in Oakland.

The 28-year-old aggravated his hamstring injury during his first attempt at a rehab assignment last month, so the Reds figures to be extra cautious this time around. Still, a return before the end of the month appears realistic if he can avoid setbacks.

Chris Heisey (hamstring) will resume a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Monday. Heisey aggravated his right hamstring during a rehab assignment last month and still felt some soreness after sliding drills last Wednesday.

"I haven't heard anything," Heisey said. "I feel good though." The outfielder was able to run at about 80 percent effort over a week ago, so he can't be too far off.
