The San Diego Padres activated infielder Logan Forsythe from the 60-day disabled list and placed infielder Jedd Gyorko on the 15-day disabled list on Monday.
Gyorko is hitting .284 with eight home runs and 25 RBI over 60 games this season, his first in the majors. He is suffering from a right groin strain.
Forsythe began the season on the 15-day DL with right plantar fasciitis and was moved to the 60-day DL on April 24. Over eight games in a rehab assignment at Triple-A Tucson, he batted .360 with two homers and five RBI.
