The Diamondbacks reinstated Lawlar (wrist) from the 60-day injured list, and he is starting in center field and batting seventh Friday against the Reds.
The 23-year-old landed on the injured list in early April due to a fractured wrist, but he's back with Arizona after posting a .736 OPS over an eight-game rehab assignment. Lawlar had a hot start to the year prior to the injury, going 6-for-20 with a homer, a double and a stolen base, and will look to pick up where he left off two months later.
