Phillies seek rotation solution after Falter demotion

The Philadelphia Phillies have demoted Bailey Falter to Triple-A Lehigh Valley after he fell to 0-7 with a 5.13 ERA. The Phillies are now in a serious crunch for starting pitching and have no clear answer on how to replace him. They may turn to Triple-A right-hander Noah Skirrow, who is the most likely candidate, or use the bullpen if it is fresh. The Phillies' top three pitching prospects are not options, and the only healthy options on the 40-man roster are Triple-A left-handers Cristopher Sánchez and Michael Plassmeyer, who have not pitched well.

Phillies demote struggling pitcher Falter to Triple-A

The Phillies have sent Bailey Falter to Triple A after his uninspiring results as a starting pitcher and bulk reliever. It is unclear who will take his place in the rotation, but options are limited. The Phillies have recalled Erich Uelmen to take Falter's place on the active roster. Falter's fastball velocity has diminished, and he has struggled to recapture his success from 2022.

Phillies' pitching experiment backfires in loss to Giants.

The Philadelphia Phillies lost 6-3 to the San Francisco Giants after a pitching experiment by manager Rob Thomson went wrong. Thomson decided to have relief pitcher Connor Brogdon pitch the first inning and bring in starting pitcher Bailey Falter after an inning or two to help him get past his first-inning woes. However, Brogdon gave up two singles and a walk to load the bases with two outs, and Falter gave up six runs in his first full inning of work. The Phillies fell behind 6-2 early and were never really able to get back into it.

Phillies find their groove, take series against White Sox.

The Phillies' pitching staff is showing promise with the tandem of lefties Gregory Soto and José Alvarado, who have combined to allow only two earned runs in 16 2/3 innings with 30 strikeouts and four walks since April 1. Trea Turner's power stroke has been slow to start, but the Phillies expect improvement from their lineup mainstays. Bailey Falter, the Phillies' fifth starter, lacks an out pitch against right-handed batters, but the team is working around this by using four-seam fastballs at the top of the zone and curveballs down.
