Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that Harper is absent from Tuesday's lineup versus the Marlins due to illness, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
The illness is bad enough to force Harper to miss his first start since July 2, but he should be ready to return to action in a day or two. Otto Kemp is at first base and batting ninth for the Phillies.
