McCutchen left Monday's game against the Padres after appearing to injure his left knee, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen suffered the injury while in a rundown, and he needed assistance just to get off the field. While this doesn't look good for the veteran outfielder, he'll be considered day-to-day until the team reveals the nature of the injury.

McCutchen went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen's fourth-inning blast helped cut the Dodgers' lead to 2-1 at the time, but it was only one of five hits on the night for the Phillies. McCutchen is up to 10 homers, 29 RBI and 45 runs scored in 56 games this season, typically batting at the top of a loaded lineup.

EDGE Analysis
McCutchen launched a two-run homer in the third inning to tie the ballgame, registering his sixth home run of the season. The veteran outfielder has reached base safely in eight of his last 11 contests, and he'll aim to keep it rolling at the dish in the final two games of the series.

McCutchen went 1-for-2 with three walks and a run scored Sunday against Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen was on base four times in the series finale, and he managed to score the go-ahead run in the fifth. The 32-year-old outfielder has been struggling so far this season through 38 games (.238/.370/.399 slash line), but Sunday's performance could be a sign that he's beginning to see the ball much better at the dish.

McCutchen is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Cardinals, Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen will retreat to the bench for what appears to be a regular day off after starting the first 35 games of the season for the Phillies. The veteran outfielder is in a bit of a slump over his last 15 games, hitting .211/.318/.281 with a homer, three RBI and a stolen base over that stretch. Nick Williams draws the start in left field in place of McCutchen on Wednesday, hitting seventh.

McCutchen went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and two runs in an 8-5 victory against the Rockies on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The .267 batting average isn't anything special, but McCutchen is putting together a very solid start in every other category. Behind 10 extra-base hits, including four homers, and 18 walks, he owns a .929 OPS. McCutchen has also already scored 19 runs and has nine RBI out of the leadoff spot. Better yet, McCutchen always seems to get better as the season goes, which at least in theory, gives him a solid chance of posting his best offensive numbers since 2015.
