Kendrick (oblique) was activated from the disabled list Monday, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports. He'll start in left field and bat second.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Kendrick was activated ahead of Monday's series opener against the Marlins after missing over a month with an oblique strain. With the Phillies in serious need of some offensive production, manager Pete Mackanin will wast no time inserting Kendrick back into the lineup. He should find himself in the lineup more often than not if he's able to hit.
