J.T. Realmuto, Andrew McCutchen Absent In First Game
4 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto and outfielder Andrew McCutchen will sit for the team's first game of a doubleheader Sunday versus Braves right-hander Huascar Ynoa. Adam Haseley gets the nod in right field and is batting leadoff, while Andrew Knapp will bat ninth and call signs behind the dish. Realmuto is hot at the plate with three homers in his last four starts, while McCutchen is slumping with a .115 BA to start the season. Owners can remain patient a little longer with the former MVP, and we can expect both hitters to play in the nightcap against left-hander Max Fried.
