Phillies Bullpen Shuffle and Lazar’s Return

Phillies bullpen gets a boost as Max Lazar returns from injury, heading down to Triple-A to ramp up after a solid rehab stint, while Zach Pop comes back briefly before being designated for assignment after a calf strain sidelined him since April. Despite Pop’s recent bullpen success—including an unexpected opener start—his spot is now open. Lazar, a familiar face with major league experience and a save last season, is getting the extra time to prepare. With Jhoan Duran locked in as closer and strong performances from Orion Kerkering, Brad Keller, Jose Alvarado, and Chase Shugart, the Phillies’ bullpen looks deeper and more formidable than ever.
