On Friday, the Philadelphia Phillies faced a setback as two key players were placed on the injured list. Infielder Bryce Harper and designated hitter Kyle Schwarber both sustained lower body injuries in Thursday’s game against the Miami Marlins, with Harper experiencing a hamstring issue while running to first base and Schwarber feeling groin soreness while making a throw in left field. Both players underwent imaging which confirmed strains.
In response to these injuries, the Phillies activated infielder Kody Clemens from his rehab assignment and called up outfielder Johan Rojas from Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Harper, who has had an impressive season with a batting average of .303 and 20 home runs, faces uncertainty regarding his participation in the upcoming All-Star Game. Schwarber, on the other hand, has contributed 17 home runs and a batting average of .250, with his status still unclear.
The Phillies are currently missing key players such as catcher J.T. Realmuto and pitchers Taijuan Walker and Spencer Turnbull due to injuries. Despite these setbacks, the team will continue their series against the Marlins and work towards maintaining their strong performance in the season.
