Phillies option Mickey Moniak to triple A and call up infielder Yairo Muñoz Philadelphia Phillies centerfielder Mickey Moniak was struggling, so he was optioned to the Lehigh Valley IronPigs.

JUNE 14, 2022 • MCALL.COM

Optioned to Triple-A Moniak was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

Impact Moniak looked good in spring training and was given another crack at the big leagues in late May after the fractured hand he suffered shortly before Opening Day healed, but his latest stint on the active roster was as brief and as unimpressive as his previous cameos. He was sent down after playing just nine games, but his .160/.250/.161 slash line and 37.9 percent strikeout rate weren't close to acceptable. He now owns a .139/.244/.181 career line in 38 major-league games. Yairo Munoz's contract was selected in a corresponding move.

Out of Friday's lineup Moniak is not in the lineup for Friday's game against Arizona.

Impact Moniak and Odubel Herrera have alternated starts in center field over the past five games, and that trend will continue Friday after Moniak went 0-for-1 with two walks and a run scored during Thursday's win at Milwaukee.

Phillies send slumping Trout, Angels to 10th straight loss

Zack Wheeler struck out nine over six solid innings to lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a 7-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels

Passed over for start Moniak is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

Impact Moniak will take a seat after he went 0-for-6 with five strikeouts while starting in center field in the first two games of the series following his return from the 10-day injured list due to the fractured hand that has sidelined him all season. Manager Joe Girardi appears prepared to give the lefty-hitting Moniak a fair shake as their everyday center fielder, but after the 24-year-old endured a rough first two games, the Phillies might not have envisioned things getting any better for Moniak on Wednesday with a tough southpaw (Carlos Rodon) on the mound for San Francisco. Odubel Herrera replaces Moniak in center field.

Activated for season debut Moniak (hand) was activated off the injured list Monday and will bat seventh and play center field against the Giants.

Impact Moniak missed out on the Opening Day roster after suffering a hairline fracture in his right wrist right before the start of the season, but he's ready to go after hitting .394/.421/.667 across eight rehab games. The 24-year-old has struggled to a .432 OPS and a 40.0 percent strikeout rate in a tiny sample of 55 career MLB plate appearances, but he could have the chance to claim the starting center field job ahead of Odubel Herrera.
