Heading into the 2016 season, the Phillies had their outfield plan set. Odubel Herrera in center, Aaron Altherr in right, and a platoon of Cody Asche and veteran Peter Bourjos in left. Not to mention, rule-5 pick Tyler Goeddel as a fifth outfielder.
However, that plan fell apart very quickly.
Altherr would miss the first five months of the season due to a wrist injury suffered in spring training. And Asche would miss the first 2 months of the season after an oblique injury prior to spring training.
