Tommy Joseph

Tommy Joseph out of Phillies' lineup again on Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Tommy Joseph is not starting on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

This will be a second consecutive absence for Joseph while Rhys Hoskins draws another start at first base for tonight's matchup with right-hander Yu Darvish and the Dodgers. Aaron Altherr, Odubel Herrera, and Nick Williams will handle business in the outfield for the Phillies.

numberFire's models project Joseph for a .261 batting average, 2 home runs, 7 RBI, and 6 runs scored in 50 plate appearances over the remainder of the year.
