Knocks three hits in win Hicks went 3-for-5 with two runs scored in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Athletics.

Impact Hicks has come back hot after a minimum stay on the injured list due to a back issue. He's gone 9-for-23 (.391) since his return while making starts at catcher (one), first base (two) and designated hitter (two) in that span. He's had a consistent enough bat to be a near-everyday presence in the lineup for the Marlins. Hicks is hitting .288 with an .830 OPS, 13 home runs, 54 RBI, 48 runs scored, seven doubles, one triple and a stolen base over 78 contests. He continues to primarily bat out of the leadoff spot versus right-handed pitchers.

Returns from injured list The Marlins activated Hicks (back) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

Impact The 27-year-old has been dealing with a lower-back strain but is ready to rejoin the Marlins after spending the 10-day minimum on the shelf. Miami has yet to release its starting nine for Tuesday's contest, but Hicks should immediately reclaim a prominent spot in the lineup.

Could be activated Tuesday Hicks (back) is likely to come off the injured list when first eligible Tuesday in Colorado.

Impact He participated in full baseball activities June 26 and is swinging without limitations and is able to catch. The Marlins have a fantasy-friendly seven-game schedule this week as they are on the road to face the Rockies and Athletics, so Hicks is a viable option in weekly two-catcher leagues.

JUNE 21 • Associated Press

Lands on injured list The Marlins placed Hicks on the 10-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to June 20, due to a lower-back strain.

Impact The 27-year-old was scratched from Saturday's lineup due to what was initially reported as lower-back tightness, and he'll be out for at least another nine days after being diagnosed with a strain. It's unclear if Hicks will be ready to return when first eligible June 30, as an official recovery timeline has yet to be reported. Griffin Conine (hamstring) was reinstated from the injured list Sunday and seems likely to fill Hicks' vacated spot in the lineup.
