Yairo Munoz Comes Off the Disabled List
Yairo Munoz was activated from the disabled list on Wednesday. Munoz ended up missing almost two weeks due to a wrist injury. With Marcell Ozuna (shoulder) heading to the DL, Munoz could see some starts in the outfield over the next week or two. He could be a decent low-cost DFS play when he's in the starting lineup, but likely won't be in there consistently enough for standard leagues.

Yairo Munoz Called Up, Mickey Moniak Sent Down
Yairo Munoz from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday night and optioned outfielder Mickey Moniak to Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move. The team also moved second baseman Jean Segura (finger) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL. Munoz earned the promotion by hitting three home runs and driving in eight with a 1.037 OPS in his last nine games, and he's played just about every position in the minors this year. He has slashed .319/.345/.799 on the year and is starting at second base and is batting eighth against Miami Marlins left-hander Trevor Rogers on Tuesday. The 27-year-old has hit .274 with 11 home runs, 59 RBI and 15 stolen bases in 213 career major league games over four seasons, and he could stick as a super-utility man in Philadelphia.
