Phillies Place Sam Coonrod On Injured List
3 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies placed relief pitcher Sam Coonrod (forearm) on the 10-day injured list on Friday with right forearm tendinitis. The move is retroactive to June 24. In corresponding moves, infielder Nick Maton and right-hander Neftali Feliz were called up from Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Right-hander David Hale was designated for assignment. On the year, Coonrod has a 4.18 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, 24.8% strikeout rate, 8.3% walk rate, seven holds and two saves in 28 innings of work in relief. He's droppable in leagues that counts saves and holds. More notable for Philly's bullpen, Jose Alvarado will now get the first crack at save chances after Hector Neris has blown three of his last five save chances.
