However, manager Dave Roberts told reporters that Heyward won't be at Chase Field for a rematch of last season's National League Division Series. Instead, he has been shut down from baseball activities for the time being with no timeline for a return.
Roberts acknowledged it's taking 'longer than we all anticipated,' indicating Jason Heyward's prolonged recovery from back tightness.
Heyward, who was placed on the injured list with back tightness during the first week of the season still needs a rehab assignment before making a return to the big league lineup, but his temporary replacement - Andy Pages - is beginning to appear more permanent.
