"Rangel, 27, has been in the big leagues before, briefly with the Braves, and the Phillies clearly see potential in him as they recalled him for debut."
"Having pitched 57 1/3 innings with a 25.4% strikeout rate in Triple-A, Rangel's potential combined with the current pitching situation makes him a valuable addition."
Alan Rangel, a 27-year-old right-hander, has been recalled by the Phillies to make his major league debut as they manage an injury-limited pitching roster. Having previously been with the Braves, Rangel aims to leverage a solid performance in Triple-A where he recorded a 25.4% strikeout rate, despite a less impressive 5.02 ERA. He adds depth to a depleted bullpen, with current circumstances requiring a fresh arm. Rangel likely represents an important depth asset amidst Philadelphia's pitching challenges.
