Show Notes
The Philadelphia Phillies have optioned right-hander Seth Johnson to Triple-A, amidst a competitive bullpen race. Despite impressing in spring training with a low ERA and strong pitch selection, Johnsons recurring issue of issuing walks led to his demotion. The move narrows the bullpen competition to several right-handers and lefties, with opt-out deadlines looming for some. The team also reassigned two catchers to minor-league camp, leaving just four days until Opening Day. Lastly, starters Bryse Wilson and Tucker Davidson were sent to the minors, potentially to anchor Triple-A rotations.
