Brandon Marsh's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the Philadelphia Phillies and outfielder Brandon Marsh have settled on a $3 million contract to avoid arbitration. The 27-year-old operated as an everyday outfielder for the Phillies in 2024 and should be expected to retain that role in 2025. Last season, Marsh held a .249/.328/.419 slash line with 16 home runs and 19 stolen bases. His 60 RBI matched a career-high. Under the hood, he generated a strong 47.4% hard-hit and 10.0% barrel rates, placing him in the 83rd and 68th percentile, respectively. While he posted a hefty 32.4% K rate, he was still able to draw walks at a solid 10.5% mark, which was above average. Given his ability to hit for power and swipe double-digit bags, Marsh remains a viable target in deeper five-outfielder leagues as long as he continues to have an everyday spot in the starting nine.

Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Bryson Stott and outfielder Brandon Marsh are both out of the Game 3 lineup on Tuesday in the National League Division Series at Citi Field with a left-hander on the mound for the New York Mets. Edmundo Sosa will make the start at the keystone and bat eighth, while Austin Hays makes the start in left field and will hit seventh against Mets left-hander Sean Manaea. Stott had a big role in the Game 2 win on Sunday, hitting a two-run triple, but he'll take a seat with a lefty starting. Sosa has gone 4-for-8 in his career against Manaea with a homer, triple, double, three RBI and two strikeouts, so he'll be an intriguing DFS sleeper for Tuesday's games. Hays has only faced Manaea three times, but he does have two hits (one homer) and an RBI against him.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh is out of the lineup for Thursday's series opener against the Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park with a left-hander on the mound. With Marsh sitting, Weston Wilson will draw the start in left field for the Phillies and will bat in the eight-hole against Nationals left-hander Mitchell Parker. At this point, fantasy managers should know to keep Marsh on their benches against lefties, as he's hit just .203 against them in 67 plate appearances in 2024 and has not gone deep against them at all. Against righties, he's a modest power/speed contributor in fantasy with 11 homers and 14 stolen bases in 310 total at-bats. Wilson is hitting .273 (9-for-33) in a limited sample size and will be a DFS sleeper option to avoid in the eight-hole on Thursday.
