Bour (oblique) is a candidate to rejoin the Marlins as early as Friday, MLB.com reports.

Bour has been on the DL since July 25 due to an oblique strain, but recently began a rehab assignment with High-A Jacksonville. He's since played three games for the Jumbo Shrimp, going a combined 3-for-9 at the plate. Bour even homered in the Double-A playoffs Sunday, and intends to be back in the lineup Thursday. Should he play a full nine innings without issue, a Friday activation is possible, and it should occur at some point in the four-game series in Atlanta regardless.
