3 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies outfielder Mickey Moniak (hand) will begin his minor league rehab assignment with Single-A Clearwater on Friday. Moniak suffered a hairline fracture on his right hand in the team's final spring training game, which caused him to lose out on an Opening Day roster spot in the Phillies outfield. The 24-year-old could require a lengthy rehab assignment, so he might not make his season debut for the Phillies until the end of this month or early in June. There's also a chance the team keeps him in the minors when he proves he's fully healthy. After all, the former first overall pick has hit just .128/.241/.191 with one homer, three RBI and three runs scored in 29 total big-league games over the last two seasons.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
