https://t.co/J6KQSzliI9 Nervous? Andrew Painter said he wasn’t nervous for his first triple-A start. “He’s a liar,” Garrett Stubbs said. On a big night in Lehigh Valley for the #Phillies’ next big thing. From @PhillyInquirer ⬇️⬇️

Andrew Painter's line in his triple-A debut: 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R/ER, 3 BB, 5 K, 60 pitches-34 strikes. He walked the bases loaded with two out in a 30-pitch third inning but got out of it.

Got a Phillies question? Ask it here, or by email ([email protected]), and I'll try to answer it on "Phillies Extra," the baseball interview show from @PhillyInquirer. Next episode drops Friday morning.

The Phillies wondered how Walker's stuff might play out of the bullpen. Velocity was up across the board. He got a 0.7 mph bump on the sinker, 1.3 mph on splitter. (He actually threw more sliders than splitters.) Pounded the strike zone. Very interesting. https://t.co/JAGQcnBrtO

Taijuan Walker picks up his first career save. He struck out seven over three innings.

RT @lochlahn: Every starter the Phillies are scheduled to face on this current road swing in Tampa and Cleveland is right-handed. So Rob…

RT @lochlahn: Alec Bohm homers to opposite field, his first since Sept. 20 of last year.

https://t.co/h7OOwobh6H As Taijuan Walker leaves the rotation (for now), the #Phillies must weigh his value as a long reliever/insurance starter and finding out if he can be another late-inning arm in a bullpen that needs one. From @PhillyInquirer ⬇️⬇️
