Darick Hall Lands On Injured List, Needs Surgery
2 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies placed infielder Darick Hall (thumb) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to April 6) with a right thumb sprain on Friday and recalled infielder Kody Clemens from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move. The Philadelphia Inquirer's Scott Lauber reports that Hall will have surgery next week to fix a torn ligament in his thumb, and Hall is expected to return at some point later this year. Rhys Hoskins (knee) is already out for the season after tearing his ACL in spring training, so the Phillies are extremely thin at first base early in the year. Clemens is starting at the cold corner and hitting eighth on Friday against the Cincinnati Reds and right-hander Hunter Greene, but Alec Bohm could slide over to play first base regularly moving forward.
