Rhys Hoskins Undergoes Successful Knee Surgery

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (knee) underwent successful knee surgery on Thursday. While everyone already knew he was due to go under the knife, the team provided an update, reporting he's looking at a seven to nine-month recovery time. Unfortunately, that means the 30-year-old won't play this season, so assuming things move in the right direction, he should return next spring. However, Hoskins will be a free agent, meaning it's anyone's guess where he'll be in 2023-24.

Rhys Hoskins To Have Knee Surgery Thursday

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (knee) will undergo left ACL reconstruction surgery on Thursday in Texas, and the procedure will be performed by Dr. Steve Singleton. Hoskins tore his left ACL in a Grapefruit League game last week and will miss the entire 2023 season. It's a tough blow for anyone that already drafted the 30-year-old slugger. He's set to become a free agent this winter. If you have a draft before Opening Day on Thursday, you'll obviously want to avoid him. With Hoskins done, Darick Hall is expected to see most of the playing time at the hot corner for the Phillies in 2023. Hall hits left-handed and could sit against lefty pitchers, with Alec Bohm sliding over to first and either Edmundo Sosa or Josh Harrison playing third those days.

Dombrowski: Darick Hall Favorite For Majority Of First Base Reps

The Phillies were dealt a huge blow yesterday when Rhys Hoskins went down with an ACL tear that’ll require surgery. They’ll now have to patch things together at first base unexpectedly. Darick Hall appears the next man up. The left-handed hitter got into his first 42 MLB games last season. He connected on nine longballs and slugged…

Rhys Hoskins To Get A Second Opinion

Philadelphia Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said that first baseman Rhys Hoskins (knee) will get a second opinion on his injured left knee, but it's clear there's a tear in his ACL. The Phillies still expect him to miss the entire 2023 season after his knee gave out on him in a Grapefruit League game on Thursday. It's terrible news for fantasy managers that already drafted Hoskins in 2023. If you have yet to draft, you'll obviously want to avoid the 30-year-old slugger this year. With Hoskins done, Darick Hall is expected to get the majority of playing time at first base for the Phillies, with Jake Cave another potential option at the cold corner for the Phillies.

Rhys Hoskins Tears ACL

After a scary non-contact injury while fielding a routine ground ball during Thursday's action, the team announced that first-baseman Rhys Hoskins (knee) tore his ACL. A subsequent MRI revealed that he had a left knee anterior cruciate ligament tear, which would require an ACL reconstruction. The timetable is unknown as of now, but Hoskins is doubtful to play in 2023. The 30-year-old was having quite a productive spring as displayed by his .355/.474/.806 slash line with four home runs. Hoskins is a premier first baseman in the game and such a devastating injury makes an impact on the entire league. As a replacement, Darick Hall is likely to fill the void at first base for the upcoming season.

Rhys Hoskins Seen Walking After Knee Injury

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that he's unsure what first baseman Rhys Hoskins' (knee) injury is yet, but Hoskins was walking around the clubhouse after getting checked out by trainers on Thursday. Hoskins' knee gave out on him in the second inning of the Grapefruit League game on Thursday against the Detroit Tigers, and he had to be carted off the field. While it looked like a pretty bad injury on the field, the fact that he was seen walking around after the game could be good news for his prognosis. Fantasy managers will still want to check back for more updates on his condition and how long he might be out to start the 2023 regular season.

Rhys Hoskins Suffers Knee Injury Thursday

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (knee) suffered a bad left knee injury in a Grapefruit League game on Thursday against the Detroit Tigers and needed to be carted off the field. Hoskins was injured in the second inning when his knee gave out on him. It didn't look good, but we'll have more information on his injury when it becomes available. Fantasy managers that already drafted the 30-year-old slugger can do nothing more than hold their breath and hope that this isn't a season-ending injury. At the very least, Hoskins will begin the 2023 regular season on the injured list for the Phillies.

Rhys Hoskins To Make Spring Debut As DH Friday

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (knee), who has been on a slower progression than usual this spring after having a minor knee procedure in the offseason, will make his Grapefruit League debut as the designated hitter on Friday against the Detroit Tigers. Hoskins is then scheduled to make his spring debut at first base this Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays. The 29-year-old slugger is fully expected to be ready by Opening Day. Hoskins had a career-low fly-ball rate in 2022 but still managed 30 home runs, the second-highest mark of his career. He should remain a solid fantasy contributor in one of the best lineups in baseball. RotoBaller has Hoskins ranked as the No. 9 fantasy first baseman.

Rhys Hoskins Underwent Minor Procedure

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins underwent arthroscopic knee surgery in December, according to manager Rob Thompson. This was a clean-up procedure to take care of the wear-and-tear on his knee from the 2022 season. The 29-year-old has not appeared in any Spring Training contests, but reportedly has been a full participant in camp. The expectation is that Hoskins is going to get into game action when the team returns to Fort Myers. This doesn't sound like something that is going hinder Hoskins performance heading into the 2023 campaign.

Phillies Settle With Rhys Hoskins Friday

The Philadelphia Phillies and first baseman Rhys Hoskins avoided salary arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $12 million deal on Friday, according to sources. In an even more formidable Phillies lineup heading into 2023 with the addition of superstar shortstop Trea Turner, Hoskins will be more attractive in fantasy in the heart of Philly's lineup. The 29-year-old finished up his sixth MLB season in 2022 by hitting .246/.332/.462 with a .794 OPS, 30 home runs, 79 RBI, 81 runs scored and two stolen bases in 672 plate appearances and 156 games. Hoskins has hit 27-plus home runs in four of his six seasons and should be money for fantasy managers again in 2023.
