Rotoworld Player News

J.T. Realmuto

PHI Catcher #10

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

J.T. Realmuto went 2-for-3 and hit his first homer Tuesday versus the Yankees.

That’s probably his one for the month. Realmuto has participated in 15 Grapefruit League seasons and has hit 15 homers in 161 games. He’s off to a 4-for-17 start this time around as he enters the first year of a three-year, $45 million contract he received to re-sign with the Phillies in January.
Jesús Luzardo

PHI Starting Pitcher #44

Jeff Passan of ESPN reports that the Phillies and left-hander Jesús Luzardo have reached an agreement on a five-year, $135 million contract extension.

The extension makes the 28-year-old southpaw one of the highest paid left-handed pitchers in all of baseball. If comes off of a season in which he posted a 3.92 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and a 216/57 K/BB ratio across 183 2/3 innings in his first year with the ballclub. The deal will keep him in Philadelphia through the 2031 season.
Taijuan Walker

PHI Relief Pitcher #99

Taijuan Walker pitched 3 1/3 hitless innings against Team Brazil in a win Sunday.

Walker struck out three and allowed no hard-hit balls in an easy 64-pitch outing. With Mexico now 2-0 in pool play, Walker has a pretty good chance of getting another WBC start next week.
Otto Kemp

PHI 1st Baseman #4

Otto Kemp homered and singled Sunday against the Twins.

Kemp’s homer was hit 111.7 mph and the single came in at 111.3 mph, making them the two hardest-hit balls in the game. Both also topped his 2025 MLB high of 111.2 mph, though he did peak at 113.4 mph in Triple-A. Assuming Johan Rojas’s PED suspension is upheld, any chance of Kemp being sent down by the Phillies would seem to be gone. He’ll probably be the team’s left fielder against left-handers.
Kyle Schwarber

PHI Left Fielder #12

Kyle Schwarber went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and a walk Saturday as Team USA shut down Great Britain 9-1.

Great Britain took an immediate 1-0 lead on Nate Eaton’s leadoff homer and maintained it for four innings, but Team USA’s offense took over afterwards, with Schwarber’s homer opening the floodgates. Gunnar Henderson went 3-for-4 with two RBI. Will Smith walked twice and was robbed of a homer by Trayce Thompson in right field.
Dante Nori

PHI Outfield

Team Italy’s Dante Nori went 3-for-3 with two solo homers against Brazil on Saturday.

That’s half as many homers as he hit in 125 games last year. Nori, the Phillies’ first-round pick two years ago, hit .261/.361/.372 with 52 steals in a 2025 spent mostly in Low-A ball. He’s a legitimate center fielder, so he won’t need to be a special hitter to turn into a useful major leaguer.
Andrew Painter

PHI Starting Pitcher #76

Although he went without a strikeout, Andrew Painter kept the Blue Jays scoreless for three innings Saturday.

Painter got only three whiffs on 16 swings today, but just two of the nine balls in play against him were hard hit. He’s up to five scoreless innings this spring, and unless he loses the strike zone over the rest of the month, he seems likely to open up at the back of the Philadelphia rotation.
Yoniel Curet

PHI Starting Pitcher #66

Phillies optioned RHPs Yoniel Curet and Moisés Chace to Double-A Reading; optioned RHP Jean Cabrera and OF Gabriel Rincones Jr. to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Curet came over in an offseason trade with the Rays and offers enough strikeout upside to envision a back-end rotation or multi-inning relief role down the road. He’ll need to iron out some control issues to reach that potential. Chace and Cabrera are among the better pitching prospects in Philadelphia’s system and should ascend to the majors later this year.
Cristopher Sánchez

PHI Starting Pitcher #61

Cristopher Sánchez gave up three runs — two earned — and six hits in 1 1/3 innings Friday against Nicaragua.

Sánchez actually struck out four (of seven batters) in the first inning tonight, with a wild pitch allowing the leadoff man to reach on the first one. He just didn’t have much help or luck in the outing, and he gave up the six hits despite not allowing a single hard-hit ball. Barring something pretty unexpected, he’ll make another start for the Dominican Republic next week.
Rafael Marchán

PHI Catcher #13

Rafael Marchán doubled twice and drove in four runs Friday as the Phillies beat the Pirates split-squad 14-10.

Though it was the Pirates fielding two teams today, the Phillies had the weaker lineup posted today, bringing none of their likely regulars to Bradenton. Nevertheless, they pulled this one out with a nine-spot in the fourth and then four runs in the ninth to break a 10-10 tie. Marchán improved to 4-for-16 for the spring. Though the Phillies are making some odd noises about carrying Garrett Stubbs as a utilityman, Marchán appears to be locked in as the primary backup to J.T. Realmuto for the second straight year.
