Could be a nice boost to the BP if he comes back and pitches effectively. He could be another Ryan Madson. Failed starter turned into a valuable BP arm. I wonder if Eflin’s durability would best suited in the bullpen long term.

I wonder if Eflin’s durability would best suited in the bullpen long term. Idk. I think he’s just injury prone and would have issues regardless. I look at it this way he’s only pitching once every 5 days, he’s breaking down and getting hurt. That’s more recovery time then he gets out of the bullpen. In the bullpen you might not throw as many innings as in one start but you have to be ready to throw almost every other day or every couple of days. can still be taxing. it’s less of a workload in one outing but also less recovery time. I just don’t think his body is gonna allow for him to ever just be completely healthy for a 162 game season. I’m for it but I’m guessing the better money is gonna be someone giving him a chance to be a starter next year.
September 3, 20224 yr Gibson making sure it’s over after the first. JFC he’s awful tonight. the pitching on this road trip has been hot garbage outside of falter.
September 3, 20224 yr The hitting is one thing. But I’m way more concerned with the pitching. Since knebel and Dominguez injuries the bullpen has really not pitched well. And we aren’t getting knebel back. The starting rotation’s most consistent pitcher lately has been falter. He got hurt. Nola has had September troubles in the past. Suarez is over his career high in innings. Gibson is hit or miss. And syndergaard is a 4/5 at this point of his career. If wheeler isn’t done for the year i think we are really in trouble. Sounds like he’s not returning anytime soon. In 4 games so far this road trip they’ve given up 11 or more in 3 of the games.

September 3, 20224 yr Phillies pitching this road trip starters: 19 innings, 21 ERs and (26 runs) only one starter got to the 5th inning bullpen: 19 innings, 17 ERs (in the bottom of 6th so about to be more.

I think they've also issued 16 walks on this road trip. Horrendous.
