Phillies Option Edubray Ramos, Recall Enyel De Los Santos

By Connor Byrne | June 23, 2019 at 10:17am CDT

The Phillies announced that they’ve optioned right-handed reliever Edubray Ramos to Triple-A Lehigh Valley and recalled righty Enyel De Los Santos. The latter will start for the Phillies on Sunday.

Ramos’ demotion continues a dud of a season for a hurler who was one of the Phillies’ top relievers in 2018. After posting a 2.32 ERA/3.54 FIP with 8.86 K/9 and 3.16 BB/9 in 42 2/3 innings last season, the 26-year-old has lost 2 mph on his fastball and his numbers have declined with it. He ran a 4.15 ERA/4.94 FIP with 6.23 K/9, 2.7 BB/9 and a subpar 28.6 percent groundball rate over 13 frames before the Phillies optioned him. Ramos also missed time earlier this season with biceps tendinitis, which may partially explain his 2019 drop-off.

Thanks to Ramos’ woes, not to mention a spate of injuries to other key relievers, Philly’s bullpen has fallen flat this season. The unit’s 4.73 ERA/5.01 FIP has helped lead to a disappointing start for the club after a headline-stealing winter. Losers of six straight, the Phillies are 39-37, though they’re still just a game out of a wild-card spot.

De Los Santos will try to right the ship for the pitching-needy team Sunday in his first-ever major league start. Acquired from the Padres for shortstop Freddy Galvis in December 2017, De Los Santos is MLB.com’s sixth-ranked Phillies prospect. There’s some question as to whether the 23-year-old will stick as a starter, though he has worked in that role in the minors.

So far this season, De Los Santos has totaled eight starts and 35 2/3 innings of 3.28 ERA pitching (with an ugly 5.24 FIP) with 11.1 K/9 and 3.28 BB/9 at the Triple-A level. He debuted with the Phillies earlier this season and tossed seven innings out of their bullpen over four appearances.

    What’s going on with this team? Everyone is either hurt or having the worst season of their lives.

      actually that’s not true and that’s what’s confusing. yeah a lot of BP guys have been injured, and Franco has been garbage, but a lot of the individual players have been good. healthy BP pitchers have been okay, Eflin is on fire, and almost every player in thr lineup has hit like they usually have. (Harper has started rough, but he does that all the time) the question is why they have struggled as they are offensively if these guys havent struggled.

        A lot of individual players have bee. good? I am very confused by that line.

        Realmuto, Hernandez, Franco, Quinn, Knapp, Rodriguez, Bruce, Segura have all underperformed. Hoskins has been mediocre at best. Harper is doing what he does despite being overly criticized. Kingerey has been good. Outside of Eflin, every pitcher has underperformed.

        So no. Not a lot of players have been good.

    The Philadelphia Phillies were the first sports franchise in world history to lose 10,000 games. It’s in their DNA, and what they do best.

        And they were bad for the first half of the 20th century. That helped!

    This won’t be de los Santos’ first Major League start. He made 2 last year.

      I thought that was the case. I vaguely remember being disappointed.
