While the Phillies have been very active in their pursuit of bats over the course of this season, they have stayed rather quiet from a pitching standpoint. The Phillies have mostly relied on their minor league depth to help aid their bullpen situation.
Some of those moves have worked, others haven’t. But the Phillies still had one big internal move to make. Activate Jerad Eickhoff.
Now 28 years of age, Eickhoff was projected to be a member of the Phillies starting rotation this year. But a lat strain in spring training put him on the shelf for two months.
