Brandon Marsh To Return To Action On Tuesday
MLB.com's Todd Zolecki reports that Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh (knee) will play in Tuesday's Grapefruit League game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Marsh bruised his left knee in the team's Grapefruit League contest on Sunday against the Baltimore Orioles, but it wasn't a serious injury, and he'll end up missing just one day. The 27-year-old will be ready to go for Opening Day next Thursday, March 27, versus the division-rival Washington Nationals and he's expected to be the team's primary center fielder in 2025. With moderate power and speed, the former second-rounder by the Los Angeles Angels in 2016 is merely outfield depth for those in mixed fantasy leagues. However, he does reside in one of the best lineups in baseball and he was able to set career-highs in home runs (16) and stolen bases (19) in 135 games in 2024. Sitting against many lefties and a career strikeout rate over 30% lowers his ceiling.
