• Could return Saturday
    Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Friday that it's a "possibility" Marsh (hamstring) is activated from the 10-day injured list Saturday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Marsh will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Reading on Friday and it sounds like that could be the only rehab game he needs if he comes out of it well. The outfielder has been sidelined since early June with a strained right hamstring. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:51 pm
     
  • Brandon Marsh (hamstring) could return on Saturday
    Phillies’ manager Rob Thomson told reporters on Friday that there’s a chance Brandon Marsh (hamstring) could return on Saturday.

  • Forgettable night in return
    Moore went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts in his return from paternity leave during an extra-inning loss against the White Sox on Thursday.

    Advice: Moore had sat out the previous two games while on leave, and he went down on strikes three times against masterful White Sox starter Garrett Crochet before also logging one final punchout when facing reliever Michael Kopech. Since hitting safely in back-to-back games May 25-26, Moore has been mired in a nightmarish slump, going 4-for-42 with a single extra-base hit (a double) and a 38.8 percent strikeout across his last 13 contests.

  • Dylan Moore back from paternity list
    Mariners reinstated INF/OF Dylan Moore from the paternity list.

    Advice: Moore was gone for three days. He’ll resume playing pretty regularly between second, third and left, giving him some value in deeper mixed leagues. Rotoworld Thursday, 11:12 am

  • Returns from paternity leave
    The Mariners reinstated Moore (personal) from the paternity list Thursday.

    Advice: Moore has been away from the team since Monday to spend time with his family, and he will now return to the Mariners ahead of Thursday's series finale against the White Sox. The 31-year-old has slashed .160/.233/.200 with two RBI and five runs scored since the beginning of June. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:00 am

  • Starting rehab assignment
    Marsh (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Reading on Thursday.

    Advice: Marsh has been working out with Reading in recent days and is ready to test out his strained right hamstring in a game setting. The outfielder shouldn't require too many rehab games before being activated since he just landed on the 10-day injured list June 3. A return early next week at the start of the Phillies' homestand seems like a sensible target for Marsh. Rotowire.com Thursday, 8:57 am
     
  • Brandon Marsh (hamstring) to begin rehab assignment
    Brandon Marsh will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Reading on Thursday night.

    Advice: It should be a brief minor league stint for Marsh, who is on the IL with a hamstring strain. He’s eligible to come off the injured list today and, barring a setback, will probably be activated this weekend. It will be interesting to see how the Phillies make room for him, given that David Dahl has been very impressive in his absence and has no options remaining. Sending down Weston Wilson would leave the Phillies short-handed in the infield, and releasing Whit Merrifield probably isn’t an option. Demoting Johan Rojas might be a possibility.

  • Sitting against lefty
    Nimmo is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Marlins.

    Advice: Nimmo has struck out eight times across his last 14 plate appearances, and he might have had a tough time bouncing back Wednesday against a left-handed starting pitcher (Braxton Garrett), so he'll be given the day off to regroup. Tyrone Taylor will replace Nimmo in left field and will bat sixth. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 12:17 pm
     
  • Rehab games coming soon
    Marsh (hamstring) is working out with Double-A Reading and is expected to appear in games with the affiliate this week, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Marsh was placed on the IL on June 3 with a mild strain in his right hamstring and now appears on the verge of a rehab assignment. The outfielder likely won't be able to return when he's first eligible Thursday, but he should be back with the Phillies within the next week or two. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:04 pm
