Good numbers. Interested to see how he does in the pen for the remainder of the year.

Do you think we should be worried about them JTrea?

Yeah I should’ve, my bad. Honestly forgot he pitched in the majors this year when I was doing this. Which is dumb because those numbers are on his MiLB.com page too...

The #Orioles have placed RHP Jhan Mariñez on the 10-day disabled list (right hamstring strain) and recalled RHP Evan Phillips from Triple-A Norfolk. He will wear No. 58.

Haven't seen him pitch yet, but he is doing some mighty fine stretching exercises in the bull pen.

Buck was impressed.  That might turn some of the haters around, LOL.

Was working that FB consistently up the zone. 93-95 but seemed the batters had some difficulty picking it up. A couple nice changeups. Need to see more. Wasn't overwhelemd by him.

Phillips had recently made his big league debut for the Braves before being included in the Braves’ package to Baltimore for Kevin Gausman. He struggled with control in a short Major League sample but was able to limit walks much better at Triple-A earlier in the year. Phillips’ low-90s fastball touches 94-to-95 mph at best and is backed up by a workable slider and changeup. No pitch grades as plus, but being able to throw three for strikes while being able to face both righties and lefties makes him a palatable middle relief option. He could be in the O’s bullpen mix in 2019.

Hyde... 

 

“Evan came up here and threw the ball great. His last few appearances obviously haven’t gone the way he would have liked them to, and we just felt like he’s a young guy with a huge career ahead of him. I love his stuff. He’s going to be back up here shortly. We just thought it was the right thing to do to is to have him go down, give him a few appearances down there, work in a couple things that we talked about and come back up. 

 

“He was sitting at 96 last night,” Hyde said. “Sitting at 96 and he’s got a good slider and a split and now it’s being able to execute the slider. To be able to get the slider on the plate, off the plate when necessary, be able to locate the fastball to both sides of the plate. It’s really the theme for a lot of our guys.

“Understand how to get a good major league hitter out. You’ve got to be able to throw your off-speed behind in the count, you’ve got to be able to be unpredictable, be able to throw your off-speed on the plate when you want to and underneath the zone when you want to. As well as being able to locate your fastball up up, down and away when you need it. So I think we’re still in a growing process with a lot of our guys and Evan is a part of that.

“Evan’s going to be a back end bullpen guy, but right now we just feel like the right thing to do is to get some appearances down in Triple-A and come back up.”
