The Philadelphia Phillies announced that both Nick Maton (Clearwater) and Connor Brogdon (Lehigh Valley) will begin rehab assignments on Thursday night.

Maton landed on the injured list on June 4, when he suffered a shoulder strain upon making a phenomenal catch in the infield.

Brogdon had an unfortunately-timed bout with COVID-19, but the bullpen somewhat surprisingly pitched exceptionally well without him.

Still, both of these youthful additions will serve as a depth boon for the Phillies, who have been hit hard with both pitching and infield injuries of late.
