• Four more hits Wednesday
    Bohm went 4-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a walk in Wednesday's 7-4 loss to the Reds.

    Advice: Bohm's been on a tear of late. He now has multiple hits in four straight contests while extending his hitting streak to eight games -- he's 16-for-30 with a 1.522 OPS in that span. The 27-year-old Bohm's now slashing .337/.430/.558 with three homers, 21 RBI and 11 runs scored through his first 25 games this season. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago

  • Phillies option Kody Clemens to Triple-A
    Phillies optioned INF Kody Clemens to Triple-A Lehigh.

    Advice: Clemens came up to the active roster while Bryce Harper was away on paternity leave. The 27-year-old made the most of his time up when he hit a three-run home run on Monday, but wasn’t in the lineup for Philly’s last two games. He’ll head down to the minors where he is slashing .270/.333/.508 with three homers and 11 RBI in 16 games this season. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago
     
  • Sent back to minors
    The Phillies optioned Clemens to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday.

    Advice: He was up with the big club for three games while Bryce Harper was on paternity leave, but he'll now head back to Lehigh Valley as Harper rejoins the club ahead of Thursday's game in Cincinnati. Clemens went 2-for-4 with a home run in his lone start this week. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago
     
  • Reinstated from paternity leave
    The Phillies reinstated Harper (personal) from the paternity leave list Thursday.

    Advice: Harper missed the first three games of the series in Cincinnati after welcoming his third child into the world, but he's back for the series finale in Cincinnati. The two-time MVP will start at first base and bat third against the Reds. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago
     
  • Phillies activate Bryce Harper from paternity list
    Phillies activated Bryce Harper from the paternity list.

    Advice: After a few days off to celebrate the birth of a child, Harper joins the Phillies in their series finale against the Reds. He’ll look to extend his hitting streak to seven games and get the Phillies back on track after consecutive losses to Cincinnati. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
     
  • Performance turning around
    Diaz went 2-for-4 with an RBI on Wednesday against the Tigers.

    Advice: Diaz got off to a slow start to the season, but he now has at least one hit in seven of his last eight starts. In that span, he also has four multi-hit performances and a .314 batting average. Counting stats haven't followed Diaz's turnaround at the plate, but as the locked-in leadoff hitter, that should also change as the season progresses. Rotowire.com 29 minutes ago
  • Takes advantage of rare start
    Singleton went 2-for-4 with a run scored Wednesday against the Cubs.

    Advice: Singleton was in the lineup for the ninth time this season while filling in for Jose Abreu at first base and hitting seventh. He managed his second multi-hit performance of the campaign and is hitting .256 across 43 plate appearances. Even with Abreu's struggles this season, Singleton looks unlikely to pick up significant playing time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:24 pm
  • Alec Bohm goes 4-for-4 as cleanup man
    Alec Bohm finished 4-for-4 with two RBI and a walk against the Reds on April 26 on Wednesday.

    Advice: It’s worth wondering if the Phillies might have another win or two if they had just left Bohm in cleanup spot, which is where he finished last year, to begin this season. He’s batting .337.430/.558 in 100 plate appearances. He did hit cleanup tonight, though that’s probably just because usual cleanup man J.T. Realmuto had the night off. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:57 pm

  • Luis Arraez posts three hits in loss to Braves
    Luis Arraez went 3-for-5 with a run scored on Wednesday in the Marlins’ extra-inning loss to the Braves.

    Advice: Just like that, Arraez is batting .299 (32-for-107) after notching his seventh multi-hit performance in the last two weeks. He sparked Miami’s ninth-inning rally against Braves stopper Raisel Iglesias with a leadoff single to cap off a three-hit effort. He’s in the midst of an extended hot streak at the moment and it wouldn’t be surprising at all if he were back in the batting title race in a few weeks. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:32 pm
