Kody Clemens
Kody Clemens has done a fine job filling in for the Phillies the past couple of seasons when they have run into some ill-timed injury troubles with their starters. He did it last year when Rhys Hoskins suffered a season-ending injury during spring training and this year as well when Trea Turner went down with a left hamstring strain.
In total, Clemens has batted .225 with a .662 OPS, with 30 runs scored, 16 doubles, eight home runs and 30 RBI in 86 games with the Phillies in the last two years.
More importantly, though, is the fact that Clemens had been coming up with some big hits for the Phillies since his recent September call-up this year. His timely hits at key moments have helped secure some crucial wins down the stretch. In addition, he has seen time at first base, second base, third base as well as left field for the Phillies in the process, registering 3 DRS and a solid overall .978 fielding percentage.
Similar to Wilson, Clemens provides some flexibility for the Phillies in terms of where they can deploy him in the field. Moreover, his clutch hitting and power bat could come in quite handy during tight playoff games. Added to the fact that the Phillies have recently indicated they will likely go with an extra bench bat than an extra bullpen arm this postseason for their roster makeup, it might just be enough to land Clemens a spot.
