Jerad Eickhoff went 3-3, 2.65 in eight starts, with really good peripherals, for a Phillies club looking to find a new identity. He looks like a guy who can pitch in the middle of a big league rotation right now, super affordably.
Alec Asher didn’t fare as well in his big league debut (0-6, 9.31 in seven starts), but his AAA numbers with Lehigh Valley were solid and he’s got a very good chance to be a lot more productive than Beau Jones ever was.
Jake Thompson was brilliant in seven AA starts (5-1, 1.80) and could be very, very good.
