Phillies Injuries Impact IronPigs

Reading Twitter just now I’m seeing:

Contreras – Done for the year

Howard – Bursitis in foot/arch area

Ibanez – Sidelined a few days

Rollins – Groin

So far only Pete Orr has been called up. Thinking we might lose someone for a day or two soon. Add in the loss of that player for a few games, add in travel time and travel fatigue.. this could really impact the IronPig’s playoff hopes.

Right now they are 1 game back of division leader Pawtucket and 2.5 games ahead of Gwinnett in the wild card.

If the season ends with Pawtucket leading the division by .001 (Remember that cancelled game) I will be an unhappy camper.

Stay tuned for more news.

  1. I can’t see where he’d fight right now with Mayberry on fire, but Moss has a good shot of getting the call. Also with the lead the Phils have and Rollins hurt, Galvis could get a look in September. He’s already on the 40-man.

    Just hope Rich gets a shot too

    • Moss and Thompson have no shot. Not enough room on the 40

      They’re not going to bring up Galvis. they’re not going to bring the “here’s jimmy’s successor’ to CBP in the middle of a push for a world series title
