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

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.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh (elbow) is back in left field and is batting sixth for the Phillies on Tuesday against right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson and the hosting Minnesota Twins. Marsh was held out as a precaution in Monday's series opener in Minnesota due to right-elbow soreness, but he's fine now after a day off. Like most left-handed batters, Marsh has been much better against righty arms this year, batting .288 (55-for-191) against them with all nine of his home runs in 75 games played. However, fantasy managers may want to keep him on their benches since he hasn't recorded a hit since before the All-Star game and is hitless in his last 13 plate appearances with a walk and six strikeouts in his last six games. The former second-round pick of the Los Angeles Angels in 2016 has never faced Woods Richardson in his career.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh will open Monday's series opener against the hosting Minnesota Twins on the bench. Weston Wilson will take over in left field for the Phillies and will bat eighth against Twins right-hander Bailey Ober. Marsh is hitting .290 (55-for-190) with all nine of his home runs this year against right-handed pitching, but Ober has had reverse splits in 2024 and has been much better against left-handed hitters. Marsh is also batting .238 (5-for-21) with two homers, three RBI and eight strikeouts in the last 14 days over eight games played. Although Wilson is batting .278 for the Phillies this year, it's come in just 18 at-bats, and he'll have a low DFS ceiling while occupying the eighth spot in the batting order on Monday.

Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Bryson Stott and outfielders Brandon Marsh and Johan Rojas are all out of the starting lineup on Friday for the series opener against the hosting Pittsburgh Pirates and veteran left-hander Martin Perez. Edmundo Sosa is starting at second base and batting sixth, Weston Wilson is in left field and hitting seventh, and Cristian Pache is in center field and is batting in the nine-hole for the Phillies. Stott, Marsh and Rojas will have to wait until Saturday to get back into the starting lineup for the first time in the second half of the season after this week's All-Star break. Sosa is the best DFS sleeper pick for Friday's action of the trio and is hitting .667 with a 1.667 OPS against Perez in his career, albeit in only three at-bats.
