About this episode
The Phillies reached the halfway point of their season on Thursday night with the best record in baseball. They are on pace to win a franchise-record 106 games. But here come the injuries. Before Thursday's game, the Phillies placed Spencer Turnbull on the 15-day injured list with a strained right lat. He is expected to miss 6-8 weeks. Michael Mercado is expected to take his place in the short term. Then late in Thursday's game, Kyle Schwarber left with tightness in his left groin, while Bryce Harper hobbled up the first-base line with a left hamstring injury. How will the Phillies handle the potential losses of Harper and Schwarber, if either or both land on the IL? Will we see Buddy Kennedy, Johan Rojas, Weston Wilson or Darick Hall? Who hits leadoff if Schwarber misses time? Who hits third if Harper goes on the IL? How concerned should the Phillies be about the starting pitching depth?
