Daily News | How Phillies reliever Connor Brogdon stayed busy during prolonged COVID-19 absence
Torture, right?Brogdon finally rejoined the team Tuesday, but was not yet added back to the roster, after testing positive for COVID-19 on June 25 during a weekend series against the Padres. He said he was ill for only one night, but Major League Baseball’s health protocols required him to stay put until he tested negative.
Brogdon, who grew up about a five-hour drive from San Diego in northern California, wasn’t even allowed to rent a car and go see his family. He cleared the protocols over the weekend, hopped a Fourth of July flight to Philadelphia, and played catch Monday at Citizens Bank Park.It’s likely Brogdon will be reinstated from the COVID-19 list within the next few days. He threw a bullpen session before Tuesday night’s series opener with the Washington Nationals.
Like several Phillies relievers, Brogdon attributes his resurgence, in part, to a change in how he’s using his pitches. “I don’t believe so, no,” interim manager Rob Thomson said. “Probably could have played today, I think, but I just want to make sure that he’s good to go. Hopefully tomorrow he’ll be ready.”
