The Phillies placed Marsh on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a bruised left knee, which is expected to keep him on the shelf for 2-to-3 weeks, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Philadelphia called up Weston Wilson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley to provide an extra body in the outfield while Marsh is sidelined. Wilson could end up filling the short side of a platoon in left field with the lefty-hitting Jake Cave on days that Kyle Schwarber isn't serving as a designated hitter, and Marsh's injury will further insulate Johan Rojas as the Phillies' everyday center fielder. Marsh had gotten off to a hot start to the second half with a .327/.456/.527 slash line to go with one home run, one stolen base, 10 RBI and nine runs in 20 games, but with the expectation that he'll be shelved until late August, fantasy managers may not have the luxury of stashing him at this stage of the season. On a more fortunate note for Marsh, manager Rob Thomson told Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer that an X-ray and MRI on the outfielder's knee revealed no structural damage.
