Bi-Weekly Report Card: Soto, Strahm, Castellanos

11-12 and sitting 3.5 games back from the division, the Phillies are still climbing out of a slow start to April.

Here are some of the notes I’ve taken over since my last report card, I’ll be back in two weeks.

Gregory Soto is Fixed

The Phillies acquired the lefty reliever from Detroit with an interesting combination of pedigree, being a two-time all-star, and work that needed to be done in order to be a late-inning arm on a contending team.

Soto has lights-out stuff but still struggled to put guys away with a strikeout rate of just 22.
