Matt Kemp, who could return as soon as next week, plans to play everyday for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Dodgers have Yasiel Puig, Carl Crawford and Andre Ethier.
Kemp tested his ankle running the bases on Tuesday.
"I'm a center fielder. That's my role, to play center field every day," Kemp said. "I don't know why people keep asking me what role I'm going to play. I want to play every day. I don't like to sit out games. I like to give my team a chance to win, and I feel like I can do that."
He injured his ankle sliding into home plate July 21.
