Werth is back in the lineup and hitting sixth for Friday's game against the Twins, Chelsea Janes of the Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

Werth had been dealing with hamstring tightness that caused him to miss Thursday's game, but looks to be healthy heading into the series with the Twins. The 37-year-old is hitting just .186 but does have two home runs and seven RBI on the young season. He will likely return to the everyday lineup as long as he doesn't re-injure his hamstring.
