J.T. Realmuto Hits On The Field
5 months agoPhiladelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (knee) did receiving drills and was set to hit on the field on Tuesday for the first time since undergoing a right-knee meniscectomy on June 12. Realmuto had hit in the indoor cages the last few days before moving to the field before Tuesday's contest. It remains to be seen when Realmuto will return from the 10-day injured list, but barring setbacks with his knee, it should come right around the All-Star break. The Phillies are 10-9 without Realmuto, so they'd love to get their All-Star backstop back sooner than later. When healthy, he remains a must-start in all fantasy lineups in one of the most potent lineups in baseball. Until he returns, Garrett Stubbs will operate as the team's primary catcher, with Rafael Marchan backing him up.
