Hays (foot) shed his walking boot and has resumed baseball activities, MLB.com reports.

Hays is hitting and throwing but not yet running after fouling a ball off his foot May 29; however, he is allowed to run in a pool. The outfielder is projected to return after a minimum 10-day stint on the injured list -- Hays' third stint on the IL this season. His job in left field is being filled primarily by Will Benson or Gavin Lux against righties and Garrett Hampson against lefties.
