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

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh was on a tear at the plate during Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. The left-handed slugger went 4-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in the win. Marsh took right-hander Kelder Montero deep in the fourth inning to give the Phillies the lead and they never looked back. The 26-year-old is slashing .269/.345/.425 with seven home runs and 31 RBI this season. He looks to be a viable option in most fantasy formats.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh will take a seat for Friday's series opener against the visiting Diamondbacks with a left-hander on the mound. He'll be replaced by Cristian Pache in center field, while Pache will hit eighth against Diamondbacks lefty Jordan Montgomery. It will be the first day off for Marsh since he returned from the injured list after starting the last five games. Marsh typically finds himself on the bench against left-handed pitchers and is batting just .128 (5-for-39) with 21 strikeouts against southpaws this season. Against righties, though, he's been solid with a .300 average (42-for-140) with all six of his home runs. Pache isn't recommended as a DFS sleeper near the bottom of the lineup. He's gone just 14-for-66 (.212) on the year with no home runs and is hitless in three career at-bats against Montgomery.

The Philadelphia Phillies placed outfielder Brandon Marsh (hamstring) and infielder Kody Clemens (back) on the 10-day injured list on Monday and recalled outfielders Weston Wilson and David Dahl from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in corresponding moves. Marsh strained his right hamstring in Sunday's loss to the St. Louis Cardinals and was removed in the eighth inning. Clemens was scratched from Sunday's lineup with back spasms and was replaced in the lineup by utility man Whit Merrifield. Both players will now miss at least the next 10 days of action as they heal up. Dahl is starting in left field and will bat seventh on Monday against the Milwaukee Brewers. Both he and Merrifield will battle for playing time in Philly's outfield with Marsh out.UPDATE: Marsh and Clemens have "very mild" injuries, according to manager Rob Thomson.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh (hamstring) left Sunday's 5-4 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals with a right-hamstring strain. Marsh sustained the injury by rounding second base during the bottom of the eighth inning but was able to walk off under his power. He went 1-for-3 with a walk before leaving the game. The 26-year-old will undergo further evaluation on his injured hamstring and is considered day-to-day. Marsh is hitting .265/.344/.426 with six homers, 26 RBI, and 20 runs scored over 52 games. Cristian Pache replaced Marsh in Sunday's game and could see an uptick in at-bats if Marsh were to miss time. Pache is not on the fantasy radar after slashing .216/.305/.275 with eight RBI over 24 games this season.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielders Brandon Marsh and Johan Rojas will retreat to the bench for Wednesday's series finale against the San Francisco Giants with left-hander Kyle Harrison on the mound. With Marsh getting a breather, utility man Whit Merrifield will make the start in left field and will bat seventh against Harrison, who he has never faced in his career. Cristian Pache is in center field and is batting ninth. The lefty-hitting Marsh has really struggled in limited at-bats against lefties in 2024, going 5-for-36 (.139) with no homers and 18 strikeouts in 43 plate appearances compared to a .297 average (35-for-118) with all six of his long balls against righties. Merrifield does have both of his long balls in 2024 off of lefties, but he's also hitting just .181 (17-for-94) on the year with just four RBI and six stolen bases in 29 games played.
