Nick Castellanos and Trea Turner are proving to be crucial players for the Phillies as they navigate through their current road trip without key players Harper, Schwarber, and Realmuto. While these stars are currently on the sidelines, optimism is high that they will return soon.
During their time away, Harper and Schwarber both worked out in the batting cages at Wrigley Field while Realmuto did receiving drills and hit on the field for the first time since undergoing knee surgery. All three players also participated in jogging activities, showing signs of progress.
Manager Rob Thomson expressed optimism about the trio’s recovery, suggesting that they could return in the next couple of days. Harper and Schwarber are eligible to come off the injured list on July 9 while Realmuto may need a bit more time before returning to the lineup.
Despite missing these key players, the Phillies have managed to hold their own in their absence. They are 10-9 in the games Realmuto has missed and won two out of three games without Harper and Schwarber over the weekend. This resilience has helped them maintain their lead in the division standings.
As they look ahead to upcoming games, Nick Castellanos and Trea Turner’s continued success will be crucial in filling the void left by injured stars Harper, Schwarber, and Realmuto. With their continued success, the Phillies can stay competitive until all of these key players are back in action again.
