Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Goes yard in four-hit attack
Rotowire
Marsh went 4-for-5 with a double and a solo home run in Friday's 9-1 win over Texas.
Marsh is beginning to sizzle at the plate -- he's now picked up multiple hits in six of his last 11 outings following his first four-hit game of the year Friday. Since returning from the injured list back in early May, the outfielder has been very productive in the lower part of Philadelphia's lineup while playing his strong-side platoon role. Marsh is slashing .314/.371/.486 with six homers, 22 RBI, 36 runs scored and five stolen bases over his last 234 plate appearances (75 games).

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Leaves yard Tuesday
Rotowire
Marsh went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Orioles.
Marsh got his night going with a second-inning double to get the Phillies on the board. He later cushioned their lead with a solo blast in the eighth to make it 5-0. Marsh now has five multi-hit efforts in his last 10 games and has doubled his season home-run total with three long balls over that span. He remains in a platoon role in center field, however, alongside deadline acquisition Harrison Bader.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Out again versus southpaw
Rotowire
Marsh is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.
Southpaw Cade Povich is on the hill for the Orioles, marking the second time in as many games versus lefties since the trade deadline that the lefty-swinging Marsh has been on the bench in favor of the right-handed-hitting Harrison Bader. Marsh is slashing just .200/.281/.260 against southpaws this season.
Marsh went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer, a double and two runs scored in Tuesday's win against the White Sox.
Marsh's fourth home run of the year was a two-run shot in the third inning Tuesday. That snapped an 18-game homerless drought; he posted a .558 OPS during that cold streak. Marsh has produced a .258/.331/.369 slash line with 17 extra-base hits and 34 runs scored through 85 games this season.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Sitting after 12 straight starts
Rotowire
Marsh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.
With a tough southpaw (Carlos Rodon) on the bump for New York, the left-handed-hitting Marsh will take a seat while the right-handed-hitting Johan Rojas replaces him in center field. While starting in each of the Phillies' previous 12 games, Marsh went 9-for-43 (.209 average) with zero home runs, zero steals, one RBI and five runs.
Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Resting in front end of twin bill
Rotowire
Marsh is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Padres.
Johan Rojas will cover center field in the first game of the day in place of Marsh, who had started in each of the Phillies' last six contests while going 5-for-19 with a double, two stolen bases, three runs and two RBI. Marsh will presumably return to the starting nine for the second game of the day.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Swipes bag in Saturday's loss
Rotowire
Marsh went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 6-1 loss to Atlanta.
Marsh has been a little inconsistent at the plate lately, hitting safely in just four of his last eight games. He's 7-for-25 (.280) in that stretch, adding two RBI, two runs scored and two doubles. Marsh has taken a step back on the basepaths this year, posting just four steals on five attempts after swiping 19 bags on 22 tries in the 2024 regular season. The outfielder has added a reasonable .261/.337/.373 slash line with two home runs, 17 RBI, 22 runs scored, 10 doubles an a triple over 185 plate appearances. He continues to see a strong-side platoon role in center field, though he did face a left-handed pitcher earlier in the week at the tail end of a stretch of three straight opposing southpaws.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Back on bench against lefty
Rotowire
Marsh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.
Marsh had started in each of the Phillies' last nine games and batted .333 with four extra-base hits (three doubles, one triple), five runs and three RBI, but Philadelphia faced right-handed starters in each of those contests. The Phillies are still seemingly viewing the left-handed-hitting Marsh as a platoon player, so he'll cede his spot in center field to the right-handed-hitting Johan Rojas on Sunday while southpaw David Peterson takes the hill for the Mets.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Continues to rake Friday
Rotowire
Marsh went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 10-2 win over the Mets.
It was the first three-hit game of the month by Marsh, who has now recorded at least one hit in 10 of his last 11 outings. The 27-year-old outfielder is hitting a torrid .441 (15-for-34) with five extra-base hits, four RBI, seven runs scored and one stolen base during that span. With Kyle Schwarber operating almost strictly as a designated hitter this season, Marsh has maintained a stable role in Philadelphia's outfield.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Good to go Friday
Rotowire
Marsh (elbow) is starting in center field and batting ninth Friday against the Blue Jays.
Marsh sat out Wednesday's contest after hyperextending his left elbow Tuesday, but he's ready to retake the field for Philadelphia after Thursday's team off day. The 27-year-old is off to a strong start in June, having gone 7-for-17 with three walks, a double and a stolen base in nine games.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Remains out Wednesday
Rotowire
Marsh (elbow) is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Cubs, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Marsh was lifted from Tuesday's game after hyperextending his left elbow on a slide. It's no surprise he's sitting out Wednesday's matinee, especially with a team off day looming Thursday. However, Marsh is expected to be available off the bench and should have a good shot to return to the lineup Friday versus the Blue Jays, per Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Johan Rojas will patrol center field and bat ninth for the Phillies on Wednesday.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Exits early Tuesday
Rotowire
Marsh was removed from Tuesday's game against the Cubs due to left elbow soreness, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Marsh looked a little uncomfortable after sliding into second base during the second inning, though he wasn't removed until the sixth. The fact that he was able to remain in the game for a while could signal that his injury isn't too serious, though the Phillies will likely offer some more details in the near future. Johan Rojas would be the favorite to pick up some starts in center field if Marsh needs to sit out another game or two.
Marsh will start in center field and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Athletics.
The left-handed-hitting Marsh was on the bench for three of the Phillies' last four contests, with each of his absences coming against a left-handed starting pitcher. He'll be back in the lineup Sunday against Athletics righty Gunnar Hoglund and looks poised to occupy the strong side of a platoon in center field with Johan Rojas moving forward.

Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Idle against righty
Rotowire
Marsh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Though the Phillies are facing a sixth consecutive right-handed starter (Luis L. Ortiz) on Sunday, the left-handed-hitting Marsh has now found himself out of the lineup on three occasions during that stretch. After previously occupying the strong side of a platoon in center field, Marsh looks to have fallen into a true timeshare at the position with Johan Rojas, who gets the nod Sunday.
