Slugs pinch-hit homer Torreyes went 1-for-1 with a three-run home run in a 12-6 victory against Pittsburgh on Thursday.

Impact Torreyes stepped to the plate for starter Aaron Nola in the sixth-inning and launched a two-out home run to left to bring Philadelphia all the way back from a 6-0 deficit. The 29-year-old only had one at-bat this week prior to Thursday's game though he could receive more opportunities moving forward thanks to the clutch long ball.

Phillies rally from 6 down, beat Bucs 12-6 to gain on Braves

Losing playing time Torreyes is not in the lineup Friday against the Mets.

Impact The 29-year-old finds himself on the bench for the fourth time in the past five games, as Freddy Galvis appears to have taken over as Philadelphia's primary third baseman. Torreyes is 4-for-30 through 13 games in September, while Galvis has a 1.045 OPS in 12 contests this month.

Not in Thursday's lineup Torreyes isn't in the lineup Thursday against the Cubs.

Impact Torreyes will retreat to the bench for the fourth time in the last six games. Freddy Galvis will take over at the hot corner and bat eighth.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Wednesday Torreyes isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Torreyes has gone hitless with a walk and two strikeouts in his last 14 plate appearances, and he'll be out of the lineup for the third time in the last five games. Freddy Galvis will start at the hot corner and bat seventh.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sits again Sunday Torreyes will hit the bench for the second time in three games Sunday against the Rockies.

Impact The Phillies have started to move away from Torreyes at third base, as his .245/.289/.350 slash line is nowhere near good enough for a corner infielder. Freddy Galvis will start at the hot corner Sunday.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Not in Friday's lineup Torreyes will sit Friday against the Rockies.

Impact Torreyes has been the Phillies' primary third baseman for the past month due to Alec Bohm's (wrist) struggles, but he's a very poor fit offensively for the position. His 75 wRC+, the product of a .249/.293/.356 slash line, wouldn't be good enough to start at a more important defensive position and is clearly inadequate for a corner infielder. He owns a barely better 78 wRC+ over the course of his seven-year career, so there's little reason to expect things will improve for him at the plate any time soon. Freddy Galvis, who owns a career wRC+ of 80, will start at the hot corner Friday.

Heads to bench Torreyes will not start Monday's game against Milwaukee, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Torreyes has emerged as the Phillies' primary third baseman despite a poor .249/.293/.361 slash line, numbers which aren't good enough for an everyday middle infielder, let alone a third baseman. Freddy Galvis will take over at the hot corner Monday.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Back in action Torreyes (undisclosed) is in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Torreyes was scratched from Friday's lineup, replaced at shortstop by Didi Gregorius. While the reason for his scratch never came to light, it seems it was not a serious issue. He will be at the hot corner Saturday, batting eighth against lefty Trevor Rogers.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scratched from Friday's lineup Torreyes won't start Friday against the Marlins for unspecified reasons, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Torreyes was penciled in to start at third base but ended up being a late scratch. Didi Gregorius will enter the lineup in his place to play shortstop, pushing Freddy Galvis to the hot corner.

Emerges as everyday player Torreyes will start at third base and bat seventh Sunday against the Reds.

Impact Alec Bohm will be on the bench Sunday for a fourth straight game, while Torreyes draws his eighth consecutive start, the last six of which have come at third base. After going 3-for-4 with a home run in Saturday's 6-1 win to lift his OPS to .721 on the season, Torreyes looks like he'll stick ahead of Bohm on the depth chart for the time being.
