Phillies Shuffle Catching Depth as Realmuto Hits 10-Day IL
The Phillies placed catcher J.T. Realmuto on the 10-day injured list with a lower back injury, promoting Garrett Stubbs to the active roster and pairing him with Rafael Marchán behind the plate for at least 10 days. Philadelphia, off to an 8-15 start, will rely on a limited backstop duo as Realmuto’s absence coincides with a slumping offense, and with Stubbs and Marchán both out of options, roster moves are likely to follow.
