Jankowski is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski has started four straight games in the Padres' outfield since Jose Pirela (finger) was ruled out for the season, but he'll get Tuesday off after going hitless in his previous two starts. With Jankowski out, the Padres will send out an outfield of Jabari Blash, Manuel Margot and Hunter Renfroe (from left to right).

Jankowski is starting in left field and batting eighth Saturday against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
With Jose Pirela (finger) sidelined for the season, Jankowski has seen a slight uptick in playing time recently. He's picked up three outfield starts in the past five games, going 2-for-8 (.250) over that stretch, and it appears he could be in line to see the bulk of opportunities in left field down the stretch. Also look for Matt Szczur and Jabari Blash to pick up occasional starts.

Jankowski was recalled from Triple-A El Paso on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski is back with the big club after spending the last month of the season with El Paso, slashing .266/.350/.317 in 35 games for the Chihuahuas. He hit just .160/.263/.180 in 50 at-bats for the Padres earlier in the season, so he'll occupy a bench role while San Diego finishes up the regular season.

Jankowski (foot) was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Friday, Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski has been rehabbing a foot injury in El Paso since July 22, and figures to start daily with the Triple-A team moving forward. During his assignment, he's gone 9-for-37 with three RBI, while appearing near his activation from the 60-day DL. Throughout 17 games with the Padres this year, Jankowski is hitting just .160/.263/.180 and needs more action at the minor-league level before rejoining the majors.

Jankowski (foot) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment in the Arizona Fall League this weekend, Dennis Lin of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The speedy outfielder has been sidelined for the majority of the season due to a fractured foot. The 25-year-old wasn't doing much prior to his trip to the disabled list (.160/.263/.180), but he possesses speed to help fantasy owners in need of steals if he were to regain a regular role. The team hasn't announced how long Jankowski's rehab stint will last, but they are unlikely to rush him back after such a long layoff.

Jankowski (foot) was cleared to begin baseball activities Monday, but is still "weeks away" from returning, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski has been on the disabled list with a fractured foot since April 24 and although being cleared for baseball activities is a large step in his recovery, it sounds like the speedy outfielder is still in line for slow, cautious rehabilitation program. He'll likely be targeting a return sometime during July.

Jankowski (foot) was transferred to the 60-day disabled list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
This is more of a procedural move, as a 40-man roster spot was needed for recent callup Jose Pirela. Jankowski isn't expected to be back to action until after the All-Star break, and this new designation doesn't change that timetable.

Jankowski was found to have a fracture in his bruised right foot and will miss at least six more weeks, A.J. Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski was hoping for a late May return, but at this point, he'll be lucky to return by the All-Star break. Unfortunately, he was having a terrible season before the injury (.160/.263/.180 over 17 games), so Jankowski may not have a job waiting for him upon his return.

Jankowski may also have a hairline fracture of the tarsal navicular bone in his right foot, which has a deep bone bruise that forced him to hit the disabled list Monday, Barry M. Bloom of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Andy Green said doctors said the additional injury was possible. This news makes it likely that Jankowski will miss around a month of action as the Padres take a careful approach. This will allow Jabari Blash, Cory Spangenberg and Allen Cordoba to piece together at-bats in left field during his absence, with Blash being the most intriguing dice roll in deep fantasy leagues thanks to his power potential.

Jankowski was placed on the 10-day disabled list Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski bruised a bone in his right foot after fouling a ball off it, and it appears the Padres are taking no chances with the 25-year-old. He was off to a slow start to the season, slashing just .160/.263/.180 with two stolen bases through 17 games (50 at-bats). Jabari Blash will take his spot on the roster and will likely serve as the regular left fielder while Jankowski is sidelined. He remains without a timetable for return, though one should be available once the Padres update his status.
