Pache will start in left field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Pache will make his sixth start of the season and his second in as many days while the lefty-hitting Brandon Marsh checks out of the lineup with southpaw Nick Lodolo on the bump for Cincinnati. The right-handed-hitting Pache is expected to fill the short side of a platoon in the outfield for as long as he remains on the 26-man active roster.

Pache is starting in left field and batting eighth Monday in Game 2 of the NLDS versus Atlanta, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was Brandon Marsh in left field for Game 1 against right-hander Spencer Strider. Southpaw Max Fried will toe the rubber for Game 2, so Pache gets the call in left. It's the third time in four games this postseason that the Phillies have faced a lefty and Pache has started in left field in all of them, reaching base twice and driving in one run in six plate appearances.

Pache is starting in left field and batting eighth Tuesday in Game 1 of the NL Wild Card Series versus the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Brandon Marsh will take a seat as the Phillies face left-hander Jesus Luzardo in Tuesday's opener at Citizens Bank Park. Pache is an excellent defender in the outfield and slashed .314/.375/.549 in 57 plate appearances versus southpaws during the regular season.

Pache (elbow) was activated from the 10-day injured list Friday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pache has been out since mid-July following surgery to remove a screw from his right elbow. Johan Rojas looks to have leap-frogged Pache on the Phillies' center field depth chart, but Pache could still see some starts against lefties.

Pache (elbow/hip) is set to resume his rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pache was held out of minor-league action for a little over a week because of hip tightness, but that issue is now in the rearview and he could return to the Phillies' active roster as early as Friday. The 24-year-old outfielder initially landed on the injured list in mid-July following a stabilization procedure on his right elbow.

Manager Rob Thomson said Sunday that Pache (elbow) hasn't seen game action during his rehab assignment since Friday due to hip tightness, Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Friday marked the ninth game of Pache's rehab assignment as he appeared close to returning from the injured list, but the hip issue has put things on pause. Depending on the severity of the injury, the 24-year-old could still rejoin the Phillies before the end of August.

Pache (elbow) began a rehab assignment with Single-A Clearwater on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After landing on the injured list in mid-July and resuming baseball activities two weeks ago, Pache will now begin the final stage of his recovery process. The 24-year-old outfielder figures to return from assignment within a week or so, at which point he could see an uptick in playing time while Brandon Marsh continues to work his way back from a knee injury.

Pache (elbow) is expected to begin a minor-league rehab assignment during the upcoming week, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pache has been taking part in baseball activities for nearly two weeks and looks like he'll soon be ready to test himself in a game setting after he was initially placed on the 10-day injured list July 14. When healthy this season, Pache has largely functioned as a depth outfielder for Philadelphia, but he could have an avenue to more regular playing time if he beats Brandon Marsh (knee) back from the IL. Marsh was deactivated Sunday and is expected to miss around 2-to-3 weeks.

EDGE Analysis
Pache will soon head to the Phillies' spring training complex in Florida to ramp up the intensity of his workouts. He required a cleanup procedure on his right elbow earlier this month but looks to be tracking toward a return sometime in August.
