The Phillies activated Marchan (knee) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

2w agoRotowire

Marchan has been shelved since late July with left knee patellar tendinitis, but he's been cleared to return after playing 12 rehab games with Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The 27-year-old will operate as an extra catcher for the Phillies in the final month.

Marchan (knee) is expected to be activated from the injured list Sept. 1, per MLB.com.

3w agoRotowire

Rosters expand to 28 players at the start of September, and the Phillies plan to reinstate the switch-hitting backstop once there's more room on the roster. Marchan, who's recovering from patellar tendinitis in left knee, is batting .206 with one RBI, five walks and three runs scored in 10 games (34 at-bats) on his rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Marchan (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Aug 13Rotowire

Marchan has been out for the past three weeks with left knee patellar tendinitis. He shouldn't require more than a game or two on his rehab assignment before returning to the Phillies' active roster.

The Phillies placed Marchan (knee) on the 10-day injured list Friday, retroactive to July 23.

Jul 24Rotowire

After Marchan left Wednesday's game early against the Dodgers with left knee pain, Philadelphia officially transferred him to the IL on Friday. In 92 plate appearances, the 27-year-old has slashed .102/.141/.170 with just two homers and six RBI this season. The Phillies selected Payton Henry's contract from Triple-A Lehigh Valley to fill Marchan's spot on the active roster.

Marchan was removed from Wednesday's game against the Dodgers due to left knee pain, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Jul 23Rotowire

Marchan went 0-for-3 before leaving the game in the ninth inning. He's scheduled to undergo imaging during Philadelphia's day off Thursday, and an update on his status is likely to come before the team begins its weekend series against the Yankees.
