Phils activate Marsh (hamstring) from 10-day IL
Written by I Dig SportsThe Philadelphia Phillies activated outfielder Brandon Marsh from the 10-day injured list Saturday after his recovery from a right hamstring strain.
In a corresponding move, the Phillies optioned infielder/outfielder Weston Wilson to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
Marsh was placed on the injured list June 3 after he strained the hamstring while running the bases the previous day in a loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. He felt something while running to first on a single then grabbed the back of his leg after attempting to round second base one batter later in the eighth inning. He signaled for the training staff and was lifted for a pinch runner.
The 26-year-old Marsh is batting .265 with six home runs and 26 RBIs in 52 games this season. In parts of four seasons with the Los Angeles Angels (2021-22) and Phillies (2022-present), he is batting .260 with 31 homers and 157 RBIs in 389 games.
Wilson, 29, is 0-for-4 in two games with Philadelphia this season. He made his major league debut Aug. 9, 2023, and went 5-for-16 (.313) with one homer and two RBIs in eight games for the Phillies last season.
