Oh crap, Pat Neshek isn’t coming back yet
Maikel Franco is hot. Carlos Santana is hot. Aaron Nola remains hot. It turns out that the key to the Phillies’ success hinges on “more of the players being good, more of the time.”
But behind the scenes of the Phillies’ 26-5 drubbing of the Giants through the first three games of this four-game series, there’s been a development of a different kind: Pat Neshek is still not in the bullpen. And he’s not going to be for a while longer.
Pat Neshek, who has not thrown a pitch this season because of a right shoulder injury, suffered a strained flexor in his right elbow throwing a bullpen. Will not throw for at least a week.
