Chase Shugart Called Up to Phillies Major League Roster

The Philadelphia Phillies have called up Chase Shugart to the major league roster as part of a series of pitching staff adjustments. The move coincided with the trade of Griff McGarry to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Shugart joins the Phillies to provide additional depth to the bullpen or rotation while Zack Wheeler continues his rehab assignment. This promotion marks a significant opportunity for Shugart to contribute at the big-league level as the Phillies manage their pitching resources.
