Phillies-Marlins rained out Moore and the Phillies won't play the Marlins on Thursday after the game was postponed due to inclement weather in Philadelphia, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Impact The two sides have yet to announce a make-up date for the postponed game. Considering that Moore was scheduled to make a spot start Thursday after Zach Eflin fell ill, the Phillies may elect to push the southpaw to the back of their pitching schedule. If that's the case, Moore likely wouldn't be in line to make his next start until Tuesday in Chicago against the Cubs.

Pushed up in pitching schedule Moore will start Thursday's game against the Marlins after Zach Eflin was scratched with an illness, Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Impact Moore initially appeared set to step into the rotation during this weekend's series against the Padres, filling the starting role that had previously been occupied by Spencer Howard, who was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday. Eflin's illness resulted in a late change of plans, but Moore should still be ready to handle a normal starter's workload despite taking the hill on short notice. Moore will be pitching on five days' rest after he tossed five scoreless frames against the Mets last Friday in the second game of a doubleheader.

Draws another start Phillies manager Joe Girardi said Moore will start Saturday's game against the Padres in Philadelphia, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Impact At least temporarily, Philadelphia will go with a six-man rotation, as both Moore and Spencer Howard are picking up starts this week. Howard lasted just 2.1 innings in Monday's 12-4 loss to the Reds and is now sitting on a 5.82 ERA and 1.57 WHIP across nine outings with the big club, so Moore could put himself in position to stick in the rotation over the youngster if the Phillies elect to move back to a five-man starting staff at some point. After struggling in his first three starts of the season, Moore was moved to the bullpen in late April, but he impressed in a spot start last week against the Mets. He worked five scoreless frames in that outing while limiting New York to three hits and one walk.

Impact It was Moore's first outing since May 20 after he spent roughly a month on the injured list with a back issue. He turned in his best outing of the season and lowered his ERA to 5.79 through 23.1 innings. It's unclear if he'll get another turn in the rotation or head back to the bullpen.

Starting in Friday's twin bill Moore will start one of the games in Friday's doubleheader against the Mets, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Impact The veteran southpaw was reinstated from the injured list Wednesday and will receive a starting opportunity in Friday's doubleheader. Moore has a 7.36 ERA, 1.91 WHIP and 17:11 K:BB across 18.1 innings with five homers allowed this season.

Reinstated from injured list Moore (back) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.
Impact Moore spent just over a month on the injured list due to lower-back spasms, but he made four rehab appearances for Triple-A Lehigh Valley and built up to 91 pitches in his most recent appearance Friday. The southpaw will likely be available out of the bullpen, but he could also be an option to take on a rotation role if Spencer Howard struggles in the near future.

Impact Moore built up to 91 pitches in his latest rehab outing, which seemingly suggests the Phillies are viewing him as a potential rotation option once he's reinstated from the injured list. Spencer Howard has delivered uneven results since taking over as the Phillies' No. 5 starter in late May, and if he falters in his next opportunity, he could be swapped out of the rotation in favor of Moore.
