Manager Dusty Baker said Tucker (COVID-19 injured list) will report to the ballpark Tuesday to be evaluated and determine whether he'll require a rehab assignment before being reinstated, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baker previously said he expected the outfielder to be activated from the COVID-19 IL midweek, and that should come to fruition if a rehab assignment isn't necessary. Tucker hasn't seen game action since Aug. 13 and hasn't been able to work out fully while away from the team, so it's not a guarantee he's immediately cleared to rejoin the big-league lineup.
