Overview

  • The Philadelphia Phillies have placed center fielder Brandon Marsh on the 10-day injured list with a strained right hamstring, retroactive to April 17.
  • Marsh, who has struggled offensively this season, is batting just .095 and is hitless in his last 31 at-bats over 13 games.
  • The injury occurred on April 16 when Marsh twisted his leg while fielding a ball that took an awkward hop in the outfield.
  • To fill Marsh's roster spot, the Phillies recalled outfielder Cal Stevenson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley, where he is hitting .192 with five RBIs in 16 games this season.
  • This marks Marsh's third stint on the injured list since 2023, prompting the Phillies to manage outfield depth through minor-league call-ups.
