Daily News | Rob Thomson: Phillies ace Zack Wheeler still has soreness in his injured right elbow
Wheeler will neither throw a bullpen session this weekend, as expected, nor start next week at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies ace reportedinterim manager Rob Thomson revealed Friday, and went for an MRI that showed inflammation. Wheeler will be re-evaluated early next week.
Wheeler, who tried to talk the Phillies out of putting him on the injured list on Aug. 25, didn’t make himself available for comment. Instead, Aaron Nola will start Tuesday night, according to Thomson, followed by lefty Bailey Falter on Wednesday, assuming Falter gets through a between-starts bullpen session without a recurrence of the right groin discomfort thatfrom a start Wednesday night in Arizona. Falter has allowed five earned runs in 18⅓ innings over his last three starts for a 2.45 ERA.
Thomson maintained that he remains unconcerned about Wheeler, even while acknowledging that the right-hander isn’t likely to get on a mound until late next week, at the earliest. And the longer it takes for Wheeler to be ready to throw a bullpen session, the more likely it becomes that he will need to make a minor league start before rejoining the Phillies’ rotation. The Phillies have 30 games left after Friday night.
