Realmuto (knee) was activated from the injured list Saturday, squeezing Marchan off the big-league roster.

Phillies' Rafael Marchan: Three hits, two doubles in win
Rafael Marchan went 3-for-3 with two doubles, two runs scored and an RBI in Tuesday's 10-1 win over the Dodgers.Marchan's been red hot, going 8-for-16 with four extra-base hits in his last four games. With J.T. Realmuto (knee) out, the 25-year-old Marchan has certainly made the most of the opportunity -- he's now slashing .313/.353/.583 with three homers, six RBI and eight runs scored through 52 plate appearances. He's likely earned the primary catching job over Garrett Stubbs for now, though Realmuto is expected to rejoin the Philadelphia Phillies following the All-Star break.

Phillies' Rafael Marchan: Swats second homer
Rafael Marchan went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Thursday in a loss to the Marlins.Marchan belted a solo shot in the fourth inning to give the Philadelphia Phillies a 2-0 lead. It was the backstop's second long ball over 30 plate appearances this season, which is as many homers as he hit across 224 plate appearances in the minors last year. Marchan has shown much more promise as a contact hitter than as a power hitter during his professional career, though three of his seven hits in the majors this year have gone for extra bases.

Phillies' Rafael Marchan: Has career day vs Padres
Rafael Marchan went 4-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 9-2 victory over the Padres.In his third big-league game since 2021, Marchan had a banner night, reaching base in each of his four at-bats and driving in a pair. On Friday, he hit his first home run, and he followed it up nicely with this showing. With J.T. Realmuto going down with a knee injury, Marchan's only competition for playing time is Garrett Stubbs, whose current slash line of .191/.267/.206 leaves a lot to be desired.
