Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Roman Quinn has provided much speed and energy to the club's offense since his July 27 recall, recovered from a torn ligament in his right middle finger. Forty-three days later, the switch-hitter has been diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture of his right fifth proximal phalanx, or toe, according to philly.com's Scott Lauber.
Quinn suffered the injury during Wednesday's series finale against the Miami Marlins while he was hit by a pitch from right-hander Sandy Alcantara. The 25-year-old's right foot swelled up, resulting in Quinn walking with a "slight limp," per NBC Sports Philadelphia's Jim Salisbury.
Despite the injury, Phillies manager Gabe Kapler said Quinn remains available "based on his pain tolerance," however the Phillies "will be cautious," Lauber reports. The fracture reportedly will not worsen if Quinn plays on it. With third baseman Maikel Franco also ailing (right wrist), the Phillies recalled Mitch Walding prior to their Saturday evening game against RHP Noah Syndergaard and the New York Mets.
In 33 games this season, Quinn has slashed .338/.369/.525 with 11 runs scored, 17 singles, six doubles, three triples, one home run, seven RBI, three walks, 13 strikeouts and seven stolen bases spanning 84 plate appearances. Collectively, the Phillies have just 57 stolen bases all season, the fifth-least in Major League Baseball.
