Phillies Claim Tyler Phillips, Place Adam Haseley On COVID List

By Mark Polishuk | July 24, 2021 at 4:05pm CDT

The Phillies have claimed right-hander Tyler Phillips off waivers from the Rangers.  Phillips was designated for assignment by Texas earlier this week.  In another move announced by the Phils, outfielder Adam Haseley was placed on Philadelphia’s COVID-related injury list.

A 16th-round pick for the Rangers back in 2015, Phillips is still only 23, but he hasn’t found much success pitching at either the Double-A or Triple-A levels.  Phillips has a 4.72 ERA over 108 2/3 frames at Double-A Frisco, comprised of two separate stints in Frisco sandwiched around the canceled 2020 minor league season.  Making the jump to Triple-A this season for the first time, Phillips has fared even worse, with a 9.90 ERA and more walks (12) than strikeouts (11) in his first 10 innings of work.

That small sample size was enough to make Phillips expendable in the Rangers’ eyes, though the Phillies will now see if a change of scenery can get him on track.  Phillips did show some potential as a starter in the lower minors, delivering some good groundball numbers and (his control problems this season notwithstanding) limiting walks.

      This one is a little out there. The article doesn’t touch on any plus pitches he might possess but his draft pedigree and minor league performance make you wonder where they see the upside.

      But they’ll be making some more notable moves here soon. I’d be kind of frustrated as a Phil’s fan. They have spent the money to bring in some good talent but for whatever reason haven’t put much into the pen when it wouldn’t have cost all that much more in comparison and it was obviously a glaring need. They should have solidified the pen when they signed Harper but at the very least they should have done it this past offseason after seeing the affect it’s had on what should be a playoff caliber team that could potentially make a run. But hiring DD is a sign that they won’t be hoping their issues fix themselves

    DD waited too long, not like he has much to offer unless he’s selling.

    Bummer. Was hoping he’d make it through unclaimed.
