How many lefties would you guess are currently in the Phillies bullpen? One? Two? M a y b e Three?
Right now there are four: Cole Irvin, Adam Morgan, Jose Alvarez, and Ranger Suarez. Funny thing is 3 of them began as starters for the Phillies.
Ranger Suarez never relieved a minor league game past rookie-ball and started in 3 out of his first 4 Phillies games. Adam Morgan started 36 games between 2015 and 2016 (don’t ask how they went). Cole Irvin’s first 3 major league games were as a starter.
