The Latest Phillies Injury Updates

  • Matt Strahm (left shoulder impingement)
  • Status: Could begin season on 15-day IL
  • Matt Strahm has not pitched in a Grapefruit League game since March 5. He was dealing with inflammation in his left shoulder, but is now throwing pain free. Strahm threw from 75 feet on Saturday, March 15 and will throw again from 90 feet on Sunday. Rob Thomson told reporters, including Phillies Nation‘s Ty Daubert, that there is a “chance” he could be ready for Opening Day.
  • Strahm thinks he’ll be ready for Opening Day, but he’s leaving it up to the team to make the final call. He gave a thorough explanation to reporters on Sunday regarding what went wrong with his shoulder. “It’s the positioning that my arm falls into when I get it back,” Strahm said. “So it’s basically the inflammation out of there allows the muscles to work how they’re supposed to. With inflammation, swelling shuts off muscles. And then with swelling, as I was coming back, it wasn’t stabilizing my shoulder, and then my shoulder was banging around. So, as long as we keep the inflammation out, the swelling out, it will be good.”
  • As Todd Zolecki of MLB.com noted in his story, a potential injured list placement for Strahm can be backdated three days before the beginning of the regular season. He can return as early as April 8 against the Braves in Atlanta. — Last Updated on March 16 by Destiny Lugardo
  • Johan Rojas (right shoulder discomfort)
  • StatusLimited to DH in Grapefruit League games
  • Johan Rojas has yet to play center field this spring. That is because he suffered a shoulder injury sliding into second base while playing in the Dominican Winter League playoffs.
  • “We’re just being precautionary, really,” manager Rob Thomson told reporters in Port Charlotte on Tuesday, Feb. 25. “It’s probably going to be another close to a week before he throws, but it’ll be a quick ramp-up I would think. And he’s getting plenty of at-bats.” — Last Updated March 10 by Destiny Lugardo
  • Weston Wilson (left oblique strain)
  • Status: Out six weeks, will begin the season on 10-day injured list
  • Weston Wilson was one of the front runners to win the last bench spot as a fourth or fifth right-handed hitting infield/outfield option. He’ll have to wait a little longer to make an impact with the big league club. The 30-year-old will open the season on the injured list with an oblique strain. Wilson felt something while hitting in the batting cages on February 21.
  • Wilson told reporters, including MLB.com’s Todd Zolecki, that the injury was “a freak accident.” “I didn’t feel anything before, so, like, nothing warning me,” Wilson said, “Disappointment, I would say, is the biggest word. It sucks. I was really looking forward to starting the year. I felt really good about breaking with the team.” — Last Updated Feb. 24 by Destiny Lugardo
