Cubs' Chris Coghlan: Activated, leading off Friday

Coghlan (ribs) was activated from the disabled list Friday, MLB.com's Carrie Muskat reports.

Analysis:

Coghlan is set to return to action after missing nearly a month with his rib injury. He will jump right into the starting lineup in left field Friday and hit leadoff with Dexter Fowler getting a day off. Moving forward, Coghlan has an opportunity to see action at the corner outfield spots, but those positions have turned over frequently of late and Coghlan owns just a .522 OPS on the season, so don't expect him to play every day.
