Manager Pete Mackanin met with Ryan Howard before Friday's game and told him that he has lost his starting job to Joseph, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports.
Mackanin had already shifted the majority of the playing time to Joseph, but this further solidifies things. Joseph celebrated the news with two home runs Friday and now has seven in his first 21 games in the majors.
