Riley Greene's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Detroit Tigers activated outfielder Riley Greene (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list and announced he will serve as the 27th man for tonight's game against the New York Yankees. Greene is working back from a right hamstring strain and will hit in the No. 2 spot in the Tigers' lineup on Sunday. The 23-year-old is hitting .264/.357/.485 this season with 17 homers and 51 RBI in 101 games this season. Greene is a solid producer in fantasy leagues and should be activated on most fantasy rosters upon this news.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene (hamstring), who is currently recovering from a right-hamstring strain, completed another base-running session at Comerica Park on Tuesday and is scheduled to start a minor-league rehab assignment with the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens on Thursday. Greene was initially slated to start his rehab assignment on Tuesday, but apparently the Tigers wanted to get another look at him running the bases before giving him the final green light to play in games again. The 23-year-old first-time All-Star could rejoin the Tigers' starting lineup later this weekend or early next week, barring any setbacks with his hammy. The former fifth overall pick in 2019 has already played in a career-high 101 games in 2024 and has provided fantasy managers with 17 homers, 51 RBI and four steals in 427 trips to the plate while hitting .264 (98-for-371).

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene (hamstring), who has been sidelined with a right-hamstring strain, is set to run the bases on Sunday in San Francisco. This marks the last step before he can start a minor-league rehab stint with Triple-A Toledo. It appears the 23-year-old is on track to be the designated hitter for the Mud Hens on Tuesday. Greene, who has been out of the Tigers' lineup since July 25, was having quite a productive season. In 101 games (371 at-bats), he has a slash line of .264/.357/.485 and hit 17 home runs with 15 RBI.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene (hamstring) is set to run the bases on Sunday as part of his recovery from a right-hamstring strain. This will mark the first time Greene has ran the bases since he was placed on the 10-day IL on July 26th. In conjunction with running, Greene has also been completing on-field defensive drills and is hitting daily. This marks a good sign for the 23-year-old's recovery, though no official timeline has been set for his return. Detroit has greatly missed Greene's bat, hitting for just a 71 wRC+ as a team after his last game on July 25th. Parker Meadows and Ryan Vilade have been picking up extra playing time in the outfield with Greene out, though neither is a viable fantasy option. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Greene's status and prepare for him to return for the fantasy playoffs.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene (hamstring) has resumed some baseball activity, but he has not yet started fully running again. While Green is scheduled to face Casey Mize in a live batting session at Comerica Park during this weekend's series with the division-rival Kansas City Royals, a more important point of progression from a right hamstring strain will come when he resumes running at full strength. The 23-year-old left fielder remains without a clear timetable for a return to the Tigers until that happens, but he remains a must-stash fantasy player after slashing .264/.357/.485 with 17 home runs, 21 doubles, 51 RBI, and 57 runs scored over 427 plate appearances before going on the injured list. In the meantime, Bligh Madris and Ryan Vilade should see more playing time in the Motor City.
