Jose Cuas

PHI Relief Pitcher #74

Phillies claimed RHP Jose Cuas off waivers from the Blue Jays.

Cuas heads to Triple-A Lehigh Valley as extra organizational relief depth after being designated for assignment earlier this week by Toronto. The 30-year-old righty has made 13 relief appearances this season between the Cubs and Blue Jays.
Rodolfo Castro

PHI Second Baseman #29

Phillies recalled INF Rodolfo Castro from Triple-A Lehigh Valley; placed him on the 60-day injured list with a torn right thumb ligament.

Castro suffered the injury back in late August and is recovering from season-ending surgery. The procedural move opens up a spot on Philadelphia’s 40-man roster for the club to claim reliever Jose Cuas off waivers from Toronto.
Aramis Garcia

PHI Catcher #41

Phillies selected the contract of C Aramis Garcia from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Garcia returns to the majors for the first time since getting into 47 contests for the Reds during the 2022 season. The 31-year-old journeyman backstop provides the Phillies with some emergency catching depth with starter J.T. Realmuto dealing with a left knee contusion.
Nick Nelson

PHI Relief Pitcher #57

Phillies designated RHP Nick Nelson for assigmment.

Nelson falls victim to a roster crunch as the Phillies needed to bring up some emergency catching depth with J.T. Realmuto banged up. The 28-year-old righty has made only four relief appearances this season in the big leagues.
J.T. Realmuto

PHI Catcher #10

J.T. Realmuto (knee) is absent from the lineup for Saturday’s showdown against the Marlins.

No surprise here after Realmuto made an early exit from Friday’s game against his former club with a left knee contusion. It’ll be Garrett Stubbs handling the catching duties on Saturday afternoon. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.
Trea Turner

PHI Shortstop #7

Trea Turner went 3-for-5 with a homer, a double, three RBI and a walk Friday as the Phillies crushed the Marlins 16-2.

Turner’s homer was his 16th, putting him on pace to reach 20 for the fourth straight year after never doing so in his first five full-ish seasons (he had 19 in both 2018 and ’19). He’s batting .300/.347/.467 with 15 steals in 452 plate appearances.
Zack Wheeler

PHI Starting Pitcher #45

Zack Wheeler allowed one run and two hits over six innings in beating the Marlins on Friday.

Facing a Triple-A offense, Wheeler struck out seven and walked one. He’s turned in seven straight quality starts, and he’s still very much in the Cy Young mix at 14-6 with a 2.59 ERA for the season. He’s set to face Florida’s other team next time out.
Johan Rojas

PHI Center Fielder #18

Johan Rojas doubled three times and wound up with two RBI and three runs scored Friday against the Marlins.

Rojas had as many hits tonight as he did in his previous 12 games combined, and he drove in his first runs since Aug. 17. He’ll have every chance of winning back his job with Austin Hays on the IL. He doesn’t need to be great offensively, either; he just needs to prove to be adequate.
J.T. Realmuto

PHI Catcher #10

J.T. Realmuto is day-to-day after suffering a bruised knee in Friday’s game versus the Marlins.

Everyone was up in arms about HBPs earlier this week, but all of tonight’s injuries were a result of players fouling balls off themselves. Of course, Whit Merrifield still probably wants the pitchers suspended anyway. Garrett Stubbs will catch if Realmuto is unavailable Saturday.
Buddy Kennedy

PHI Second Baseman #19

Phillies recalled INF Buddy Kennedy from Triple-A LeHigh Valley.

Kennedy is coming up to serve as infield depth with Alec Bohm going on the injured list. He’s hit .272 with 13 home runs and 46 RBI in 102 games at Triple-A this year.
