Rhys Hoskins to Return to Lineup Sunday
A Much-Needed Return
After missing the past two games with a right elbow contusion, Rhys Hoskins is set to return to the Phillies lineup on Sunday. The 29-year-old first baseman has been one of the Phillies' most consistent hitters this season, batting .275 with 20 home runs and 65 RBIs. His return will be a welcome addition to a Phillies team that has struggled to score runs in his absence.
A Key Piece in the Phillies' Playoff Push
Hoskins is a key piece in the Phillies' playoff push. The Phillies are currently in the thick of the National League wild-card race, and they need Hoskins to continue to produce if they want to make a run at the postseason. Hoskins is a good hitter against both right-handed and left-handed pitchers, and he can provide the Phillies with a much-needed boost in the middle of their lineup.
Here are some of Hoskins' stats this season:
- Batting average: .275
- Home runs: 20
- RBIs: 65
- OPS: .875
Hoskins is also a good fielder, and he has been a key part of the Phillies' defense this season. He has a strong arm and a quick release, and he can make plays on balls that other first basemen cannot. Hoskins' return will be a big boost for the Phillies both offensively and defensively.
