Phillies Bullpen in Chaos | Philadelphia Phillies News
Description
The Phillies bullpen is in chaos as Tanner Banks, who gave up three homers and is now on the injured list with a forearm strain, gets replaced by Chase Shugart. With Banks’ ERA soaring to 7.14 — the worst on the team — Philly’s lefty depth is nearly gone, down to just José Alvarado and Tim Mayza. Kyle Backhus was also sent down after struggling. Interim manager Don Mattingly, who took over in April and is now considering a permanent role, said Banks pushed through forearm fatigue in June, which hurt his command. With Aaron Nola on the mound Friday against the Tigers, the Phillies are scrambling to find stability — both on the mound and behind the dugout.
