Medical Watch 6/24/13: Jose Reyes, David Price, Bryce Harper and others.

Does your fantasy team need reinforcements?  These players are on the mend and will soon be ready to bolster your squad for the second half.

SS Jose Reyes is currently on a rehab assignment and will most likely be activated on Thursday.  If he stays healthy for the rest of the season, I don't think there is a single player in the major leagues who could have a bigger impact on your league's standings than Reyes.  Whoever currently owns him is probably salivating at the prospect of his arrival this week and won't be open for trades, but it would be in your best interest to try to pry him away.  If you're lucky, Reyes' current owner found a viable alternative to start at SS and might be willing to part with him.  Do what you can to see if he'll make that mistake.

CL J.J. Putz has been rehabbing at AAA Reno and should be ready for activation on Wednesday or Thursday.  Heath Bell has been struggling mightily in the closers role since Putz' injury.  As long as the Diamondbacks are convinced Putz is healthy he will return to his job as closer.  He's still available in 38% of Yahoo! fantasy leagues and 27% over on ESPN.  Scoop him up now while you can.

SP David Price will make a final rehab appearance in the minors on Wednesday and, if he comes out of that start good to go, will be activated to start for the Rays early next week.  I doubt anyone was stupid enough to drop him in your fantasy league, but with his 5.24 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 2 measly wins, he may be ripe for a trade offer.  Get in on this great buy low target now before he turns his season around.

OF Bryce Harper will begin a rehab assignment later this week that should last for 5-6 games.  Assuming he makes it through with a clean bill of health he should be in line for activation sometime next week.  Harper was tearing the cover off the ball with 12 HRs in just 44 games before his injury, but he had just 2 stolen bases in 4 attempts.  I'm not sure how his knee will hold up playing the outfield every day, especially with his max effort style, so he may not be very active on the bases upon his return.  He's a great buy low candidate for his emerging power, but don't overbid expecting him to match the 18 stolen bases he had last year.

C Alex Avila is rehabbing in AAA and should return within a week.  Although he was struggling this year prior to his injury (.171 with 5 HRs in 163 ABs), he had a monster year in '11 batting .295 with 19 HRs and 82 RBIs and is still just 26 years old.  If you're desperate at the catcher position he offers a lot of upside and is available in 84% of Yahoo! leagues and just about every ESPN league.

2B Brian Roberts will begin a rehab assignment on Tuesday and should be back with the orioles in a week or so.  His career has been derailed by injuries for a long time now and hasn't had a productive season since 2009.  I really only bring him up because I've always had a soft spot for the guy after targeting him for my fantasy teams every year of his prime.  He's 35 years old, young enough for one last fling of fantasy relevance atop a powerful Orioles lineup, but I admit you'd have to be very desperate to give him a shot.  Anyone else feeling nostalgic?  You're probably better off seeing if Aaron Hill is available in your league.  He's coming off the DL on Tuesday.
