Collects third win Wednesday Brogdon (3-0) gave up two hits and a walk while striking out two over 1.2 scoreless innings Wednesday to pick up the win in an 8-2 victory over the Mets.

Impact The right-hander has already made three appearances in 2021 and come away with the win in each of them, as Brogdon found himself in the right place at the right time to benefit from an offensive surge by the Phillies. The 26-year-old has a 0.00 ERA and 3:1 K:BB in 3.2 innings, but the team's crowded bullpen could keep him from consistent late-inning work even if he continues to pitch well, although his fantasy value is hardly suffering in his current role.

Earns another win Brogdon (2-0) earned the win Monday against the Mets, striking out one and allowing one hit in a scoreless eighth inning.

Impact Brogdon was brought in to face the Mets fifth, sixth and seventh hitters with a two-run deficit in the top of the eighth. He allowed a single to J.D. Davis before getting Jeff McNeil to ground into a double play and striking out James McCann. That left him as the pitcher of record when the Phillies scored five runs in the bottom half of the inning to go ahead by three. While Brogdon likely won't remain the Phillies' wins leader for too much longer, he appears to be fourth in the team's high-leverage hierarchy behind Hector Neris, Jose Alvarado and Archie Bradley, so he should continue to pitch in close games going forward.

Picks up win in extras Brogdon picked up the win in Thursday's season opener against Atlanta, tossing a clean 10th inning.

Impact In an oddity that can only happen in an era where teams start with a runner on second base in extras, Brogdon only faced two batters to retire the side. He got a pair of very good ones out, retiring Freddie Freeman on a groundout before Marcell Ozuna flew out to center fielder Roman Quinn, who threw Ozzie Albies out at home. It's notable that it was Brogdon who was called upon for the high-leverage frame after Archie Bradley, Jose Alvarado and Hector Neris had all already been used. That suggests that Brogdon is fourth in the team's hierarchy -- nowhere near save chances at the moment, but within striking distance should he open the season strong while the more established names ahead of him struggle.

Fine after exiting Sunday Manager Joe Girardi said Brogdon is "fine" after a rib issue forced him to exit Sunday's spring game against the Pirates, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Impact It's apparently a somewhat common issue for the 26-year-old to have a rib pop out, so the rib was popped back in and he's good to go. Brogdon made his big-league debut for the Phillies last season and pitched well with a 3.97 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 17:5 K:BB over 11.1 innings.

Suffers back injury in relief outing Brogdon was removed from his relief appearance in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Pirates due to a back injury, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

Impact After striking out the first batter he faced, Brogdon asked out of the contest when manager Joe Girardi and a team trainer visited him on the mound. The 26-year-old can be considered day-to-day until the Phillies provide another update on his condition.

Potential setup man Brogdon is seen as a potential setup man by the Phillies this season, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Impact Brogdon flashed plenty of potential during his 11.1-inning debut last season, posting a 3.97 ERA and 0.88 WHIP. His 38.6 percent strikeout rate proved to be more than enough to overcome his 11.4 percent walk rate and 36.4 percent groundball rate. Brogdon's inexperience means he's clearly behind Hector Neris and Archie Bradley in the battle for the closer job, but it's not out of the question that he could push for saves at some point if he excels while those two struggle.

The right-hander made three appearances during his time in the majors, allowing five runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three.
