Mets' Yoenis Cespedes (hip) set for Friday return

New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes (hip) is expected to be in the starting lineup on Friday against the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

Cespedes is ready to roll after hitting a 3-run bomb in his second rehab game with the Mets' Gulf Coast League affiliate on Wednesday. The 32-year-old may be used as a designated hitter for the three-game interleague set at Yankees Stadium.

Cespedes averaged 11.0 FanDuel points in 37 games during the first half, while slashing .255/.316/.474 with 8 home runs and 28 RBIs across 152 plate appearances.
