Another Phillies Reliever Showing Symptoms Of Fatigue

Given the 2015 Phillies starting pitching woes, it’s somewhat surprising that the Phillies do not lead the majors in reliever innings pitched. That honor goes to the Arizona Diamondbacks (385.2 IP) with the Colorado Rockies right on their heels (384.2 IP). The Phillies (381 IP) are in position for the bronze. Considering that four of the Phillies current relievers (Ken Giles, Luis Garcia, Justin De Fratus, and Jeanmar Gomez) have been on the active roster since Opening Day and a fifth (Elvis Araujo) joined the roster less than a month into the season, the workload of these arms is a growing concern.
