Joseph is out of the lineup Monday against the Marlins, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports.
Phillies manager Pete Mackanin previously suggested that Ryan Howard would see his starts reduced over the final month of the season, but that hasn't been reflected in his lineup cards of late. Joseph, who was worked as the club's primary first baseman, has now ceded those duties to Howard in four of the club's last six games. It's perhaps due in part to Joseph's minor skid at the plate, as the 25-year-old has gone 2-for-19 over his last eight games.
