STRUGGLING BATS

No Phillies hitter has struggled as mightily as 1st baseman Tommy Joseph, who had another poor week at the plate, hitting just .211 with eight strikeouts in 19 at bats. Hopefully Joseph can turn it back around for the second half of the year and establish himself as a legitimate future piece.

After a strong May, Tyler Goeddel has continued to struggle in June for the Phillies. The 2015 Rule 5 Pick was hit-less across nine at-bats for the Phils this past week.
