2026 Phillies Thread

Wow. Sort of feels like they are setting this kid up for failure. Feels like a desperation move by management.
He started the season in the rotation. He was sent down to get his **** together after a rough start and come back to the rotation. I really don't see how this is a desperate move.
He was inconsistent in AAA, albeit better than he was at the MLB level. In 5 starts he had an ERA of 4.56 in 23 2/3 innings. One game he gave up 7 ER in 2 2/3 innings. If the Phillies had a better option, he would probably still be at AAA getting his **** together, hence desperate move.
He had 1 bad games where he gave up 7, In the other 4 games he gave up 1, 2, 1, and 1. The article discusses some tweaks he made to his delivering and improvement on his fastball. It's fairly common for struggling pitchers to be sent down to the minors for a brief period to work through issues. If the staff think he is ready, it's not a desperate move. It's a prudent one. We'll see if they are right.
