Phillips (knee) took batting practice without issue Monday night and is expected to be in Tuesday's lineup as the designated hitter, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Atlanta will be playing under American League rules through the conclusion of their series against the Angels on Wednesday, which will allow Phillips to get back into the lineup even though his knee is still giving him enough trouble to keep him away from second base. The club has an off-day Thursday before returning to National League rules Friday against Cincinnati, but by then, Phillips should be good to go on both sides of the ball.
