GARRETT STUBBS NEWS

Set to lose playing time Stubbs is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

Impact He'll be on the bench for the fourth straight game and is likely to see scant playing time down the stretch after J.T. Realmuto returned to action Friday following a week-long absence. Stubbs will at least stick around as the top backup to Realmuto after the Phillies designated No. 3 backstop Aramis Garcia for assignment Sunday.

Knocks four hits Stubbs went 4-for-4 with a triple, a double, one RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's win over Kansas City.

Impact Stubbs tripled and scored in the third inning before doubling in a run and scoring again in the sixth. He capped off his big day in the eighth inning with a single and another run scored. It was Stubbs' first multi-hit performance since July 21; in eight games since then, he'd gone 4-for-21 (.190) before breaking the slump Sunday. He's now slashing .216/.310/.281 with six extra-base hits through 158 plate appearances this season.

Losing work to Realmuto Stubbs will start at catcher and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Twins.

Impact Though he's included in the lineup for the series finale in Minnesota, Stubbs has moved back into the No. 2 role at catcher after JT Realmuto was reinstated from the injured list Saturday. Realmuto has been on the bench twice in the Phillies' five contests since his activation, but both of his absences came in day games after night games.

Won't face lefty Stubbs is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics.

Impact As per usual, Stubbs will yield to Rafael Marchan behind the dish with a lefty pitcher on the mound (Hogan Harris). Stubbs is slashing .194/.259/.243 across 112 plate appearances this season.

Back in lineup Sunday Stubbs will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Impact After sitting out in three of the past four games, Stubbs is back behind the dish for the series finale in Atlanta. In two of those three games that the lefty-hitting Stubbs didn't start, the Phillies opposed left-handed pitchers, so Stubbs would still seem to have a hold on the larger portion of a timeshare at catcher with the switch-hitting Rafael Marchan. Both backstops will see their opportunities decline once J.T. Realmuto (knee) returns from the injured list.

Belts first homer Stubbs went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Marlins.

Impact The 31-year-old backstop got the Phillies on the board in the third inning by clubbing a Roddery Munoz sinker over the right-field fence. The homer was Stubbs' first of the season, and he's been making a modest impact since J.T. Realmuto (knee) was sidelined, hitting safely in nine of his last 10 games and batting .278 (10-for-36) over that stretch. The RBI was his first since June 2, however.

Gets second straight start Stubbs will start at catcher and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Mets.

Impact Stubbs will make a second straight start while J.T. Realmuto is day-to-day with a knee injury. The Phillies expect Realmuto to avoid a stint on the injured list, but with Tuesday's game beginning at 1:10 p.m. ET, the team could opt to hold him out for another contest while giving Stubbs another turn behind the plate.
