  • Bryce Harper goes on IL with mild hamstring strain
    Phillies placed 1B Bryce Harper on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

    Advice: The Phillies are calling it a low-grade strain, so Harper could be ready to go as soon in early July as his requisite 10 days are up. Kody Clemens will fill in at first base against righties. The Phillies will probably shift Alec Bohm to first and play Edmundo Sosa at third versus lefties. Rotoworld Friday, 11:54 am

  • Headed to IL with low-grade strain
    The Phillies placed Harper on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left hamstring strain.

    Advice: Harper suffered the injury on the final play of Thursday's loss to the Marlins while running out a grounder. The good news is it's considered a low-grade strain and Harper might return as soon as July 9, per Matt Gelb of The Athletic. The Phillies could also play things cautiously and hold him out until after the All-Star break. While Harper is sidelined, Philadelphia will likely shift Alec Bohm over to first base and put Edmundo Sosa at third. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:26 am

  • Bryce Harper gets good news, still IL bound
    Bryce Harper was diagnosed with a low-grade hamstring strain but will go on the 10-day injured list, according to The Athletic’s Matt Gelb.

    Advice: The Phillies think there’s a chance Harper could be ready when his 10 days are up. They’ll likely activate Kody Clemens in Harper’s place and use him at first base against righties until Harper returns. Rotoworld Friday, 11:23 am
