The Philadelphia Phillies are adjusting their right field strategy following an injury to Adolis García, likely sidelining him for the remainder of the season. His absence leaves the team with a decision to employ a platoon of Gabriel Rincones and Derek Hill. While both players offer strengths at the plate, the Phillies may consider a trade for a veteran bat if the platoon fails to perform effectively.
