Takes seat on bench to open Sunday Stott is not in the starting lineup against the Cubs on Sunday, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Stott drove in a pair of runs while hitting at the top of the lineup in Saturday's rout of the Cubs, but he'll open Sunday's finale against Chicago on the bench. Josh Harrison is starting at second base with Stott out and hitting eighth.

Ends homer drought Stott went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Giants.

Impact Stott tied the game with a fifth-inning solo shot, as the Phillies erased a 4-0 deficit only to lose 7-4. It was the second baseman's first homer since April 23, as he has hit a slump. After slashing .319/.347/.429 in April, Stott's slash line is .192/.259/.269 in May. He should even out and could flirt with a .700 OPS.

Earns fifth steal Stott went 2-for-5 with a stolen base in Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Rockies.

Impact This was Stott's second straight multi-hit effort, and he's picked up two steals over his last four games. The second baseman hit safely in 17 straight contests to begin the season, but he's cooled dramatically in May, batting .179 (7-for-39) through 10 games this month. He's still at a solid .284/.316/.370 slash line with two home runs, five steals, 12 RBI and 12 runs scored through 38 contests overall.

Not in Friday's lineup Stott is not in the Phillies' lineup for Friday's game in Colorado.

Impact Stott will take a seat against left-handed Austin Gomber. Josh Harrison is handling second base.

Bryson Stott learned to pay it forward from his mother, a teacher, who's a second mom to many "She's like the mother of every kid in the school. She's always been that way. And Bryson is always there for everybody, as well."

Hitting leadoff Sunday Stott is starting at second base and batting leadoff Sunday against the Red Sox.

Impact The 25-year-old dropped from the leadoff spot Tuesday but will return to the top of the order after he went 1-for-12 with two RBI and a run over the past four games. Stott has hit leadoff 19 times this season and has a .261/.301/.375 slash line in 93 plate appearances during those contests. Kyle Schwarber will drop back to fifth after filling in atop the lineup.

Not in lineup Friday Stott is not in the starting lineup Friday against the Red Sox.

Impact This looks to be a routine day of rest for Stott, who drove in two runs in Wednesday's series finale at Dodger Stadium. Josh Harrison will cover second base and bat eighth Friday versus Boston.

Dropped to fifth spot in order Stott will bat fifth for the Phillies on Tuesday against the Dodgers.

Impact Stott has been occupying the leadoff spot against both righties and lefties over the last couple of weeks, but the reigning NL champs will switch things up Tuesday at Dodger Stadium as they welcome Bryce Harper (elbow) back into the fold. Kyle Schwarber is at the top of the order with lefty Julio Urias on the mound for Los Angeles. Trea Turner will hit second and Harper is batting third.

Not starting Saturday Stott will sit Saturday against Kyle Freeland and the Rockies.

Impact Stott filled the large side a platoon for much of last season, but he's been an everyday player this year. Saturday marks the first time he's been absent from the lineup, and given that he's off to a .344/.365/.452 start, he's unlikely to suddenly find himself regularly sitting against southpaws. Josh Harrison will fill in for him at second base.

Leadoff homer to extend hit streak Stott went 3-for-7 with a solo home run and an additional RBI during Sunday's 14-3 win over the Reds.

Impact Stott lead off the game with a solo blast against Luis Cessa, which marked the shortstop's first homer of the season and extended his hit streak to 16 games. He added an RBI single in the the ninth and now has 10 multi-knock outings this year.

What we learned in MLB this week: The Rays are for real

At leadoff still against lefty Stott is batting leadoff again Thursday against the Reds.

Impact And this time he'll do so against a tough lefty in Nick Lodolo. Stott has quickly taken on a prominent role this year for the defending NL champions while slashing .420/.431/.500 with three stolen bases across his first 12 games. He's hit leadoff in three of the last four, with Trea Turner occupying the No. 2 hole.

APRIL 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

To get more leadoff chances Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Stott will return to the leadoff spot Wednesday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Impact Stott drew a look at leadoff in Monday's series opener versus the Marlins and right-hander Sandy Alcantara before dropping down to the eighth spot in the order for Tuesday night's game against left-hander Jesus Luzardo. Thomson has suggested that Stott might get more chances at leadoff against righties moving forward, with Trea Turner likely sliding into the No. 2 hole on those occasions.

Bryson Stott, Phillies leadoff hitter? He showed vs. Sandy Alcantara why it's enticing "I've always thought that he kind of fits the mold of a leadoff guy," Thomson said. The second at-bat against Alcantara showed his progress.

Sits against southpaw Stott is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

Impact With the Phillies facing off against a lefty (Nestor Cortes) following a Sunday night game, manager Rob Thomson may have viewed Monday's contest as an opportune time to give the lefty-hitting Stott his first breather of the season. Though Josh Harrison will cover second base in his stead, Stott may not necessarily be stuck in a platoon role all season. Stott started against Texas southpaw Martin Perez on Sunday and went 2-for-3 with a walk, bringing his on-base percentage up to .500 through the Phillies' first three games.

APRIL 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Slow start to spring Stott has hit just .143/.172/.286 through his first nine Grapefruit League games this spring.

Impact Stott will move from shortstop to second base this season due to the arrival of Trea Turner and the departure of Jean Segura. His role as the primary second baseman is unlikely to come under serious threat, but it remains to be seen whether he's a true everyday player or merely on the large side of a platoon. Edmundo Sosa (who has a 1.758 OPS with four homers this spring) started over Stott against southpaws in the playoffs, and the Phillies added another right-handed option in Josh Harrison in late January.
