J.T. Realmuto

J.T. Realmuto (knee) is not in the lineup for the Philadelphia Phillies against the Miami Marlins Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

Realmuto will sit out after exiting Friday night’s contest with the knee injury, with Garrett Stubbs batting ninth and filling in behind the plate at catcher for manager Rob Thomson against the Marlins Saturday.

J.T. Realmuto was removed from Friday's game with a bruised left knee.

Fantasy Impact

Realmuto suffered the injury after fouling a pitch off his knee in the second inning. He should be considered day-to-day for now.

J.T. Realmuto went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Phillies' 4-2 victory over the Blue Jays.

Fantasy Impact

His solo shot contributed crucially to the win, showcasing his power from behind the plate. Despite a season batting average of .261, Realmuto's ability to deliver key hits like today's homer adds a valuable dimension to fantasy rosters, particularly in leagues that value power from the catcher position. With 12 home runs and 39 RBI over 84 games this season, he remains a solid option for fantasy managers in need of reliable production at catcher, though his strikeout rate and walk rate suggest some volatility in his on-base skills.

J.T. Realmuto went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the Phillies' 7-2 loss to the Braves.

Fantasy Impact

The catcher's performance was a small bright spot in an otherwise disappointing game for Philadelphia. Realmuto's home run adds to a season where he's now hit 11 homers, maintaining a .264 batting average. While his power numbers are respectable, his overall production has been somewhat inconsistent, as indicated by his .321 wOBA. Fantasy managers should view Realmuto as a solid option at catcher, though his limited impact in categories outside of home runs and RBI might cap his ceiling. His performance in power stats is crucial, especially in leagues that value slugging and OPS.

J.T. Realmuto returns to the lineup for the Philadelphia Phillies against the Atlanta Braves Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Realmuto is back after taking a seat on the bench for rest reasons Wednesday, starting behind the plate at catcher and batting seventh against the Braves for manager Rob Thomson Thursday.
