Phillies' Alec Bohm: Extends hitting streak to six games
Rotowire
Bohm went 2-for-4 with two runs scored in Saturday's win over Miami.
Although it's still been a quiet start to the season overall, Bohm is beginning to pick things up at the plate lately. The corner infielder is riding a modest six-game hitting streak, during which he's batting .304 (7-for-23) with two doubles, three RBI, three runs scored and one stolen base. Bohm has struck out just three times during this stretch and entered Saturday's action with an elite 34.1 percent squared-up rate, per Statcast, so fantasy managers should remain patient with the 2024 All-Star.

Phillies' Alec Bohm: Rejoins lineup Wednesday
Rotowire
Bohm (foot) will start at third base and bat cleanup in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Yankees, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
He'll return to action for the first time since Saturday, after a bruised foot prompted the Phillies to hold him out for a few days. Bohm has batted out of the No. 3 or 4 spot in each of his 12 starts so far this spring, so he'll likely find himself in a prime run-producing spot behind Trea Turner and Bryce Harper once the season gets underway.

Phillies' Alec Bohm: Reinstated off IL, starting Sunday
Rotowire
The Phillies reinstated Bohm (hand) from the 10-day injured list. He'll start at third base and bat fifth Sunday against the Mets.
Bohm injured his left hand in late August and was placed on the 10-day IL on Sept. 3. He made one rehab appearance on Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday, when he went 2-for-4 with one double. The Phillies evidently saw enough from Bohm on Saturday to bring him back with the big club, and he'll immediately reclaim his spot in the infield rather than being eased back in as the designated hitter.
Bohm (hand) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Bohm has been on the injured list since Sept. 6 due to a strained left hand, though he hasn't played in a game since late August. He'll now head out to the minors to play a few tune-up games, and manager Rob Thomson said that the 28-year-old could return to the Phillies on Monday for the start of their upcoming series in Milwaukee.
