There were some positive updates regarding two injured Phillies pitchers.
Seranthony Domínguez (right triceps tendinitis) and Zach Eflin (right knee bruise) are ready to begin their respective rehab assignments. Details on when and where the assignments will take place were not immediately available since Thomson had yet to meet with both pitchers and the coaching staff.
Thomson said Eflin’s PFP session (pitcher fielding practice) went well, which was one of the bigger obstacles Eflin had to overcome to return this season. Eflin has not pitched for the Phillies since June 25 as a nagging knee injury has kept him out for more than two months.
