The Philadelphia Phillies placed outfielder Adolis Garcia on the 60-day injured list with a right latissimus dorsi tear on Friday.
In other moves, all involving outfielders, the Phillies recalled Gabriel Rincones Jr. from Triple-A Lehigh Valley, placed Steward Berroa on the paternity list and activated Derek Hill, who reported to team after being acquired from the Chicago White Sox on Thursday.
Garcia injured his right shoulder in the seventh inning of the team’s 7-4 road win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday. After catching a fly ball in right field and rushing a throw home in an attempt to retire George Springer, who was tagging up from third base, Garcia bent over in pain, grabbing at his right shoulder area.
The 33-year-old left the game after being examined by Philadelphia’s trainers, replaced by Berroa.
Garcia, who signed a one-year, $10 million contract with Philadelphia in the offseason, has struggled at the plate this season, hitting .195 with seven homers and 21 RBIs in 67 games.
He is a career .234 hitter with 148 home runs and 480 RBIs in 833 games with the St. Louis Cardinals (2018), Texas Rangers (2020-25) and Philadelphia.
Hill, 30, batted .213 (17-for-80) with four home runs and eight RBIs in 50 games this season for the White Sox, who sent him and $250,000 in international bonus pool money to Philadelphia for two minor leaguers, outfielder Dylan Campbell and infielder Jose Colmenares.
Rincones, 25, batted .239 in 12 games for Lehigh Valley and a combined .215 in 22 games for three minor league teams. He is the No. 6 prospect in the Phillies’ farm system, according to MLB Pipeline.
Berroa, 27, is 1-for-7 in six games this season, his first with the Phillies.
