When the team sent Cole Hamels to the Texas Rangers two seasons ago, most of the focus was on the names of Williams and Alfaro as the spoils of the bounty coming northward to Philadelphia. Jerad Eickhoff and Alec Asher were seen as merely throw-ins to sweeten the deal for the Phillies, with Matt Harrison balancing the ledgers. When he made his debut for the team, Eickhoff impressed, yet he was still seen as a “meh” guy who, at best, would make some starts at the end of the rotation.
