  • Trea Turner (hamstring) might return on Sunday
    Phillies manager Rob Thomson told reporters Trea Turner (hamstring) could potentially return on Sunday.

    Advice: Turner continued running at full-speed on Saturday and could potentially be activated for Sunday’s series finale against the Orioles. It’s possible they’ll elect to wait until Monday’s series opener against the Padres, but it certainly appears that the 30-year-old superstar shortstop isn’t far off from returning for Philadelphia.

  • Max Kepler dealing with elbow soreness
    Max Kepler is day-to-day with elbow soreness.

    Advice: Kepler managed to stay in Friday’s extra-inning marathon against the Athletics, eventually delivering the game-winning hit, after being hit by a pitch in the elbow earlier in the contest. He’ll benefit from Saturday’s rainout by getting some extra time to rest and recover. It’s possible he’ll be ready for the opening contest of Sunday’s doubleheader at Target Field.
