Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh undergoes arthroscopic knee surgery, expected to return in 3-4 weeks, potentially impacting the team's outfield plans for the upcoming season.

The Phillies have not acquired any outfielders this offseason and are relying on Johan Rojas, Jake Cave, and Cristian Pache as reserve options.

The team is open to signing players on minor-league contracts and will monitor the outfield market for potential additions.
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh underwent arthroscopic knee surgery and is expected to return to game activity in three to four weeks, with the team anticipating his readiness for Opening Day. The injury occurred during a workout, and while it's not expected to be a long-term issue, the Phillies may seek a right-handed-hitting outfielder as a precaution. Marsh, acquired from the Angels in 2022, is likely to shift to left field in 2024 to accommodate defensive standout Johan Rojas in center field.
