Phillies recalled RHP Max Lazar from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
He’ll take the place of the struggling Orion Kerkering in the Phillies’ bullpen. The 27-year-old hurler has made six appearances at the MLB level this season, posting an underwhelming 5.63 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and a 5/3 K/BB ratio over eight innings of work. He’ll function in a middle relief role for Phillies’ skipper Don Mattingly.
