Los Angeles Angeles pitcher Tommy Hanson is expected to return to the lineup Friday after being placed on the "restricted list" May 10 following the death of his step-brother, according to a report late Monday evening from Alden Gonzalez of MLB.com.

According to Gonzalez, Angels manager Mike Scioscia confirmed the news and said Hanson, who hasn't started a game since May 4, had thrown a five-inning, 75-pitch simulated game on Saturday in Arizona. Hanson is 2-1 with a ERA of 3.86 over five starts this season.
