Phillies Giving Brandon Marsh A Mental Break, Could Be Out Next Three Days
1 day agoPhiladelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson said he wants to give struggling outfielder Brandon Marsh a mental and physical break. Marsh isn't in the starting lineup on Monday against the visiting San Francisco Giants at Citizens Bank Park, and there's a good chance he'll be out the next three days. Johan Rojas is starting in center field and is batting ninth on Monday against Giants right-hander Landen Roupp, and there's a good chance Rojas will start in center the next three days. Marsh is hitless in his last 26 at-bats and has gone 4-for-37 (.108) with a home run, four RBI, seven walks and 14 strikeouts in the first 14 games of the 2025 season. Marsh should eventually break out of his slump, but it might not be later this week when he returns from a little break. Rojas has yet to impress offensively in the big leagues, although he has gone 4-for-13 with two RBI in the early going in 2025.
