Joseph is not in the lineup Thursday against the Mets, Jack McCaffery of the Delaware County Daily Times reports.

Ryan Howard is expected to get a good number of the starts at first base down the stretch as the Phillies prepare to give him a proper sendoff, so Joseph will begin that trend Thursday now that Howard's knee is back to full health. Joseph's playing time may be down a bit for the remainder of the season, although he'll likely be in consideration for the primary first base job headed into spring training.
