The Latest Phillies Injury Updates
Brandon Marsh (left knee bruise)
Status: 10-day injured list — Out 2-3 weeks
Marsh is headed to the injured list with a left knee bruise that he sustained on Aug. 5 in a failed attempt to make a catch against the center field wall. He was using crutches in the Phillies clubhouse Sunday morning, but seemingly putting weight on both legs while walking gingerly. IF/OF Weston Wilson has been called up to take Marsh’s spot on the 26-man roster for the time being, with Johan Rojas likely to get some more extended runway in center field.

Jose Alvarado (left elbow inflammation)
Status: 15-day injured list— Aiming to return mid-August
The Phillies placed Alvarado on the 15-day injured list with elbow inflammation, retroactive to July 7. It’s the second stint on the IL this season for the hard-throwing reliever, who missed over a month earlier this campaign as he dealt with inflammation in the same elbow.
Alvarado will throw a live batting practice session on Aug. 7. If that goes well, the plan is for him to start a rehab stint on Aug. 10. (Last Updated on Aug. 6) — Tim Kelly
Status: 60-day injured list — Likely out for regular season
The Phillies first baseman underwent successful surgery the morning of Thursday, March 30.
While Thomson cautioned that he’s “not a doctor,” he did acknowledge that Hoskins is “ahead of where I thought he would be at this time.” Hoskins is doing short sprints and light running. He could “possibly” begin swinging a bat in the next week or 10 days, Thomson added. He’s already doing his throwing program. Thomson estimated that Hoskins would need “two to three weeks of at-bats,” before returning to the Phillies. This isn’t to say he’s close to returning. He’s not. But the possible scenario of Hoskins rejoining the Phillies for a playoff run is at least still in play. (Last Updated on July 26) — Tim Kelly
Andrew Painter (right UCL sprain)
Status: Full season MiLB injured list — Likely out until 2025
Painter underwent successful Tommy John surgery on July 25, which was performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache. The procedure comes with an estimated 15-18 month recovery timeline. (Last Updated July 26) — Tim Kelly
Cristian Pache (right elbow irritation)
Status: 10-day injured list
Pache underwent a procedure to remove a screw from his right elbow on July 17, which is believed to have gone well.
Pache is making progress. He’s cleared to do light throwing and hitting off the tee. Thomson did not put an exact timeline on a return, but he thinks Pache is at least two weeks out. He’ll travel to Clearwater to continue his rehab when the team leaves for Pittsburgh. (Last Updated July 25) — Destiny Lugardo
