Player News

Revere gets three hits in win over Marlins | 05/21/2013 11:15 PM

News

Ben Revere went 3-for-5 with a double as the Phillies beat the Marlins on Tuesday.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Revere scored two runs in the game while raising his average to .260. He was removed from the leadoff spot after his early struggles, rendering him relatively useless for fantasy purposes. He's begun to hit more in May and manager Charlie Manuel rewarded him by hitting him second Tuesday. He may finally be starting to show why the Phillies traded for his this past offseason.

Ben Revere relegated to backup duty | 05/19/2013 9:51 AM

News

Ben Revere hasn't started for four straight games.

Philadelphia Inquirer and Daily News

Impact

He's actually hitting .357/.438/.393 in 33 plate appearances this month, but the Phillies have been going with John Mayberry in center field of late. Revere and hitting instructor Steve Henderson have been watching old film of the outfielder from his minor league days in hopes of finding something to fix his batting stroke. He'll probably be back in the lineup on Sunday after Mayberry took the golden sombrero Saturday.

Ben Revere returns to lineup | 04/30/2013 10:06 PM

News

Ben Revere was hitless in three at-bats in his return to the lineup Tuesday.

Phillies.mlb.com

Impact

Revere has been dealing with a strained right quadriceps for the last week, and the Phillies were also holding him out due to his struggles at the plate. He's now batting just .200/.234/.222 for the season and could see his playing time start to dwindle if he doesn't pick it up.

Revere (quad) could return to lineup Saturday | 04/27/2013 8:37 AM

News

Ben Revere (quad) could return to the Phillies' lineup Saturday.

Philadelphia Inquirer

Impact

Revere has missed the last two games with a sore quad, and it's still possible that he'll be rested through the weekend. The Phillies are platooning John Mayberry and Ezequiel Carrera in his absence.

Ben Revere sitting out again | 04/26/2013 3:46 PM

News

Ben Revere (quad) is out of the lineup Friday for the second straight game.

Ryan Lawrence on Twitter

Impact

Revere is nursing a sore quad but is expected to return sometime over the weekend. John Mayberry is taking his spot in center field.

Ben Revere dealing with sore quad | 04/26/2013 9:35 AM

News

Ben Revere was not in Thursday's lineup due to a sore quad.

Philadelphia Inquirer

Impact

The injury is considered minor, though Revere indicated that he is likely to sit out Friday, as well. "May give me one more day, but if I tell him I feel pretty good, he may put me in there [on Friday]." Revere is batting just .207 with a .242 OBP so far this season.

Revere not in Phillies' lineup on Thursday | 04/25/2013 10:21 AM

News

Ben Revere is not in the Phillies' starting lineup on Thursday afternoon against the Pirates.

Todd Zolecki on Twitter

Impact

It's just a routine day off for Revere, who is batting .207/.242/.230 in 93 plate appearances this season. Ezequiel Carrera is starting in center field Thursday.

Revere has two hits in win over Cardinals | 04/19/2013 10:15 PM

News

Ben Revere went 2-for-3 with an RBI triple and two runs scored Friday in a win over the Cardinals.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

As part of a four-run first inning, Revere hit the ball to the wall in left-center field for his first extra-base hit of the season. The 24-year-old began the year as the Phillies' leadoff man, but he has batted seventh each of the past two games. He's not nearly as interesting from a fantasy perspective in the bottom-third of the order.

Ben Revere struggling from leadoff spot | 04/15/2013 10:10 PM

News

Ben Revere went 0-for-4 in the Phillies' loss to the Reds on Monday.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Manager Charlie Manuel disrupted his lineup to move Revere into the leadoff spot, but it's yet to pay dividends with the 24-year-old hitting just .222 with four walks in 54 at-bats. He's scored five runs in 13 games to date. If he doesn't heat up soon, the Phillies could drop him down towards the bottom of the order and restore Jimmy Rollins at the top.

Ben Revere goes 2-for-4 against Tigers | 03/27/2013 4:26 PM

News

Ben Revere went 2-for-4 with two steals and two runs scored Wednesday in a 4-1 win over the Tigers.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

It looks like Revere is going to open the season as the Phillies' leadoff man, with Jimmy Rollins, Chase Utley and Ryan Howard following in the order. It's great news for his fantasy value. Manager Charlie Manuel was initially leaning towards batting him seventh because he didn't want that many lefties at the top.

Ben Revere goes 3-for-3 | 03/12/2013 4:45 PM

News

Ben Revere went 3-for-3 with two doubles and three runs scored versus the Tigers on Tuesday.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

The first double should have been an error, but as is, it was Revere's second three-hit game in four days. He's up to .372 for the spring. The Phillies have been batting him leadoff of late with Jimmy Rollins playing for Team USA, but it's still unclear where he's going to bat during the regular season.

Ben Revere reaches three times, steals base | 03/04/2013 5:39 PM

News

Ben Revere went 2-for-3 with a walk and a steal Monday in the Phillies' 5-0 shutout of the Pirates.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Revere hit leadoff today with Jimmy Rollins gone to Team USA. The Phillies still haven't settled on where to bat him this season. Manager Charlie Manuel initially indicated that he'd hit low in the order, since it'd be tough to squeeze in a lefty ahead of Chase Utley and Ryan Howard, but now it looks like Revere could hit second or maybe even first, with Rollins in the two hole.
