1 day agoThe Philadelphia Phillies are planning to save most of right-handed pitching prospect Andrew Painter's (elbow) limited innings for "July-ish" as he makes his way back from Tommy John surgery, according to president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski. Painter will throw during spring training but will not pitch in games. Before making his big-league debut in 2025, the Phillies will build him up in the minor leagues. The team's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, didn't pitch at all in 2023 and threw only 15 2/3 innings in the Arizona Fall League this year, so the 21-year-old will certainly have a strict innings cap in 2025, which will limit his fantasy appeal in single-year leagues. The recent additions of left-hander Jesus Luzardo and right-hander Joe Ross also give the Phils more rotation insurance, so it remains to be see how big of a need they'll have for Painter around midseason.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
