After a very successful season as a long-man for Nick Nelson, circumstances changed that had him spend most of his 2023 season as a depth starting pitcher in AAA.
First came a hamstring issue in the middle of camp that required him to be placed on the IL once the season started.
After making it back, he was optioned when the Phillies were getting good outings from Andrew Vasquez.
He was sidelined once again with the same hamstring issue in May and was just kept in AAA as starting pitching depth when he returned.
