The phillies announced that they had placed the right -hander Aaron Nola On the 15 -day injured list, retroactive until May 15, due to a straight ankle. Right -handed Daniel Robert has been recalled to take its place. Todd Zolecki from MLB.com was one of those who report this perspective Mick Abel Will be promoted to make his debut in the major league, but only to make a starting point on Sunday. After that, it will be optionized in Triple-A and Taijuan Walker will take Nola’s rotation point. In other news from Philly, manager Rob Thomson relayed this perspective CHECE MOSE will undergo Tommy John surgery. Lochlahn March of Philadelphia Inquirer was among those who transmitted it.
In March, Nola was injured in the ankle before her recent departure in Cleveland. He then granted four points deserved in five rounds in this match. Her next departure was even worse, because Nola granted nine points deserved in 3 2/3 rounds against the cardinals on Wednesday.
Perhaps the ankle injury provides an explanation for these outings, but Nola also had difficulties before that, with an average of 4.61 points deserved during her first seven departures this year. Although for what it is worth, he was taking a little momentum. On April 27, he launched seven rounds of a ball to a race against the Cubs, then six aimed against the Diamondbacks on May 3.
Whether due to the ankle or not, Nola now has an MPM of 6.16 over the year. Its withdrawal rate of 23.6%, its walking rate of 7.3% and its level of ball on the ground of 44.6% are all decent figures, but 11 circuits have pushed more routes through the plate. Siera, which expects the constituency rate to normalize, has 3.66 this year. However, Home Runs have always been part of the Nola game, so it may not be the best metric in this specific body. The phillies have not provided an estimate for how long they expect Nola to be absent, but it seems that it will miss at least a few laps.
Nola’s injury will allow Walker to return to rotation. He started his season with six major departures, displaying a 2.54 MPM in them. But when Ranger Suárez was ready to get out of the Il, someone had to go. Walker collided with the enclosure of the lifts while the phils worked with a rotation of Suárez, Nola, Zack Wheeler,, Jesús Luzardo And Cristopher Sánchez. Walker made two relief appearances, all three rounds. The first was aimlessly, but he gave three deserved points in the second, which came in nola relief on Wednesday.
He will resume a place of rotation next week, but Abel will be able to make his debut in the major league in the meantime. A former first round choice, Abel’s stock of prospect fell a little due to inconsistent control. From 2021 to 2024, he launched 375 rounds from minor leagues and withdrew 26.9% of the throators faced, but he also gave walks to a 13.3% clip, which led to an MPM of 4.75.
Despite the rough edges, the phils added it to their list of 40 men in November, to keep it outside the rule 5. The first results are encouraging this year. It has an MPM of 2.53 to eight Triple-A departures, with a withdrawal rate of 26.6% and a ball level of 49.2%. Its 9.9% walking rate is still a little higher than peer but an improvement for it. He will have the chance to make a brief start this weekend.
As for Chace, it is obviously an unfortunate blow for him. Acquired from last summer orioles Gregory Soto Trade, Chace is one of the best club prospects of the club and a guy from the top 100 of the top 100. He was not on each list, but the Fangraphs had it at 74th # 74 in the year, ESPN in # 90 and Baseball Prospectus put it in their location n ° 101.
Like Abel, Chace received a place of 40 men in November to keep him outside the rule 5 project. He started this year at Double-A and could have made his way to Triple-A or even the majors during the 2025 season. It will now be on a break for a long time, because he should be rehabilitated until the summer of 2026. The phils could recall and place it on the Ligue de la Ligue de la Ligue 60 wish. This would open a place of 40 men, but Chace would also have to start earning a big league salary and service time.
