Darick Hall - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Clears waivers The Phillies outrighted Hall to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday after he cleared waivers.

Impact Hall logged 198 plate appearances at the big-league level between the 2022 and 2023 seasons, but he's played exclusively for Lehigh Valley in 2024, slashing .250/.326/.407 with 12 home runs and one stolen base in 350 plate appearances before the Phillies booted him off the 40-man roster Friday. Given that Hall is already 29 years old, is limited to first base defensively and has posted underwhelming numbers at Triple-A this season, it's not particularly surprising that he didn't draw any interest on waivers.

Removed from 40-man roster The Phillies designated Hall for assignment Friday, Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact It's been clear for a while the Hall didn't have much of a future in Philadelphia and he's now off the 40-man roster with the Phillies needing the spot for someone else. The 29-year-old has just a .726 OPS this season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, but he's put up some big numbers in the minors in the past, so there could be interest from a team with more of a need at first base or designated hitter.

Exits starting nine Hall is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

Impact The lefty-hitting Hall sat out both ends of a doubleheader last weekend when the Padres brought a pair of lefty starters to the hill, but he had manned first base in both of the Phillies' last two games against right-handed pitchers. However, Hall will find himself on the bench Wednesday versus righty Colin Rea, allowing Edmundo Sosa to crack the lineup at third base while Alec Bohm shifts over to first.

Sitting nightcap versus lefty Hall isn't in the Phillies' lineup for Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against San Diego, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Left-hander Ryan Weathers will start Game 2 on the mound for San Diego, so the left-handed bat of Hall will stay put in Philly's dugout. Alec Bohm will take over at first base, allowing Edmundo Sosa to start at third and bat seventh.

JULY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench against lefty Hall will sit for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Padres.

Impact The Phillies will rest a handful of lefties against Blake Snell, though the Padres are starting a second southpaw (Ryan Weathers) in the nightcap, so Hall could see himself stuck on the bench all day. Drew Ellis starts at first base in the afternoon game.

JULY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench versus southpaw Hall is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Hall will hit the bench Sunday for the second straight game with lefty Jesus Luzardo pitching for Miami. Alec Bohm is covering first base while Edmundo Sosa starts at the hot corner.

JULY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting versus lefty Hall isn't in the Phillies' lineup Saturday against Miami.

Impact Hall is 4-for-19 with a homer and two RBI since returning from Triple-A. He'll catch a breather Saturday against lefty Braxton Garrett, moving Alec Bohm to first base and allowing Edmundo Sosa to start at third and bat eighth.

JULY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hits first homer of 2023 Hall went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's win over the Rays.

Impact After going homerless in his first nine MLB games this season, Hall finally got on the board with a 398-foot moonshot off Jake Diekman in the fifth frame. After missing nearly two months with a thumb injury, Hall was called back up to the big league roster on July 2 and has been acting as the Phillies' starting first baseman. Since the promotion, Hall is batting 3-for-16 (.187) with the solo homer and an additional RBI.

Impact Hall missed approximately two months earlier this season while recovering from a torn ligament in his thumb, but he was activated from the injured list in early June and was simultaneously optioned to Triple-A. After slashing an impressive .325/.406/.537 at Lehigh Valley over the past month, Hall will move back to the big leagues and is expected to get a look in a strong-side platoon role at first base. He'll be replacing Kody Clemens, who was optioned to Lehigh Valley after falling into a 5-for-39 drought at the plate over his last 13 games.

Phillies reinstate, option 1B Darick Hall The Philadelphia Phillies reinstated first baseman Darick Hall from the injured list on Monday and optioned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley

JUNE 19, 2023 • DEADSPIN.COM

Reinstated, optioned to Triple-A Hall (thumb) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday.

Impact Hall will return to the 40-man roster for the first time since he suffered a torn ligament in his right thumb in early April. The 27-year-old went 13-for-51 with six extra-base hits, including two homers, and 10 RBI over 13 games with Triple-A Lehigh Valley during his rehab assignment and he'll look to remain hot moving forward. Over 42 games with the Phillies in 2022, Hall produced a .250 average with nine homers, 16 RBI and 19 runs scored. With Bryce Harper holding down the designated hitter role in 2023, if Hall were to get called up, he'd likely operate in a platoon with Kody Clemens at first base. In a corresponding move, Dalton Guthrie was designated for assignment Monday.

Rehab moved to Triple-A The Phillies transferred Hall's (thumb) rehab assignment to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday.

Impact Hall played in two games at Single-A Clearwater, going 3-for-8 with a double and a walk in the process. He's eligible to return from the 60-day injured list June 5, but it's possible the Phillies keep him in Triple-A past that date to ensure he gets plenty of plate appearances while on assignment. Hall has been sidelined with a torn ligament in his right thumb since April 5.

Cleared for rehab games Hall (thumb) is beginning a rehab assignment Tuesday with Single-A Clearwater.

Impact Hall will likely require a significant number of tuneup at-bats in the minors given that he's been sidelined since the first week of April because of a torn ligament in his right. But he's been cleared again for live competition and is about ready to offer the Phillies much-needed help at first base. Hall is first eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list June 5.

The first baseman is on the 60-day injured list and not eligible to return to the Phillies until the early portion of June, and a rehab assignment in the next week or so could put him on track to do just that.
