Daily News | Zack Wheeler, Zach Eflin unlikely to rejoin Phillies until after series against the Mariners
SEATTLE — When the Phillies arrived here late Sunday night, they were missing two-fifths of their starting rotation.Zack Wheeler and Zach Eflin were still on the COVID-19 restricted list Monday night, as the Phillies began a three-game series with the Seattle Mariners. Manager Joe Girardi was unable to provide much clarity on their status but suggested they might not be cleared to return until after the series.
The Phillies don’t have a starting pitcher for Wednesday’s matinee finale against the Mariners or Thursday night’s opener at Dodger Stadium. Ranger Suárez and Aaron Nola were lined up to start the first two games against the Mariners. Kyle Gibson, who started Sunday, is scheduled to pitch Friday night in Los Angeles.
Asked when the Phillies think they might get Wheeler or Eflin back for the series against the Dodgers, specifically whether it may be in time for Thursday night’s game, Girardi declined to say.A player can be placed on the COVID-19 list for various reasons, including testing positive, exhibiting symptoms, or being identified as a close contact of someone who has the virus. Vaccinated players must be cleared by MLB to be reinstated.
