Tonight J.C. Romero will begin his rehab assignment with the Lehigh Valley IronPigs. Romero currently has 14 games left on his suspension and is eligible to start pitching in the minor leagues under the suspension rules. Pitchers suspended for more than 26 games can appear in minor league games starting 16 days before the suspension is lifted.
Romero will get the start tonight and you can figure he will go for an inning or two.
Considering the Phillies’ pitching struggles so far, it would be key if Romero can have a solid outing tonight to put some concerns to rest.
