INJURIES

Recalled by Phillies Marchan was recalled by the Phillies on Thursday.
Impact Chase Anderson landed on the COVID-19 injured list in a corresponding move, which means Marchan is merely with the team as the third catcher. He's unlikely to see many at-bats during his time with the team and appears to be primarily around in an insurance role.
JUNE 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Sent down Saturday Marchan was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Impact Marchan had served as a depth option behind the plate recently but will return to the minors after J.T. Realmuto (hand) was reinstated from the 10-day IL. Marchan appeared in just four games during his time with the major-league club and went 3-for-13 with a double, a run, a walk and four strikeouts during that time.

Phillies place Realmuto on COVID-related IL, recall Marchan

The Philadelphia Phillies have placed catcher J
MAY 13, 2021 • Associated Press
Gets call-up The Phillies recalled Marchan from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday.
Impact Marchan will join the Phillies to provide a No. 2 option at catcher behind Andrew Knapp after top backstop J.T. Realmuto (knee) was placed on the COVID-19-related injured list in a corresponding move. The Phillies have yet to release a timeline for when Realmuto might be ready to rejoin the active roster, but however long he's up with the big club, Marchan is unlikely to see much work.
MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Optioned to alternate camp Marchan was optioned to the Phillies' alternate training site Saturday.
Impact Marchan was called up to serve as catching depth Friday, but he didn't take the field. The 22-year-old will likely begin the season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
MAY 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Called up by Phillies Marchan was recalled by the Phillies on Friday.
Impact Marchan will join the team with Didi Gregorius (ribs) landing on the COVID-19 injured list in a corresponding move. He's unlikely to get many opportunities during his time with the team, as he's stuck behind J.T. Realmuto and Andrew Knapp on the catcher depth chart.

Mad Bum gets opener for D-backs; Kluber is Yanks' No. 2

MARCH 29, 2021 • Associated Press
Moves to minor-league camp The Phillies optioned Marchan (hamstring) to their minor-league camp Sunday.
Impact Marchan missed most of spring training with a hamstring injury, but he was at least able to make his return to game action Friday against the Blue Jays, going 0-for-2 while serving as the backup catcher behind J.T. Realmuto. Though the hamstring issue seems to be behind him, Marchan's absence from most of camp was enough to prevent him from making a serious run at unseating Andrew Knapp for the No. 2 spot on the depth chart. Expect Marchan to begin the 2021 season at Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
MARCH 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Gets work in simulated game Marchan (hamstring) played in a simulated game Friday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Impact J.T. Realmuto's fractured thumb could in theory give Marchan a chance to break camp as Andrew Knapp's backup, but it doesn't look as though that's going to happen. Realmuto appears to be on roughly the same schedule as Marchan, as he played in the same simulated game Friday, so there probably won't be a window where Marchan is healthy but Realmuto is still hurt.
MARCH 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Out until late March Marchan's hamstring issue will keep him out until at least the last week of March, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Impact If healthy, Marchan could potentially be needed at the start of the season, as J.T. Realmuto hopes to be ready to go following his fractured thumb but still hasn't gotten into game action. Marchan is the only other backstop on the 40-man roster besides Andrew Knapp. Non-roster invitee Jeff Mathis could make the team if neither Realmuto nor Marchan are cleared to play, but the Phillies would certainly prefer not to have to open a 40-man roster spot just to add a backup catcher for a week or two.
MARCH 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with hamstring issue Marchan hasn't appeared in a game since the end of February due to a hamstring issue, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Impact Marchan jumped straight from High-A to the big leagues last season, appearing in three games. He's likely to open this year in the minors but could have been called upon to open the season as Andrew Knapp's backup if J.T. Realmuto (thumb) isn't ready to go by Opening Day. It's unclear whether or not Marchan's injury is serious enough to threaten his readiness for the start of the season, but if both Realmuto and Marchan aren't ready to go it will likely be non-roster invitee Jeff Mathis who earns the backup job.

Philadelphia Phillies: Unsung hero Rafael Marchan displays new skill Philadelphia Phillies rookie catcher Rafael Marchan launched his first home run as a professional on Friday night. With one week left in the...
SEPTEMBER 19, 2020 • CALLTOTHEPEN.COM
Launches first career homer Marchan got the start in the second game of Friday's doubleheader sweep of the Blue Jays, going 2-for-3 with a three-run homer and a second run scored.
Impact Remarkably, it was the 21-year-old's first professional homer at any level. Marchan's opportunities to contribute should dry up as soon as J.T. Realmuto (hip) is able to play again, but the rookie was at least able to make an impact when he got the chance.
