Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher
Ryan Sherriff (biceps) is being shut down for a few days, according to Phillies manager Joe Girardi. The left-handed reliever, who was claimed off waivers by the Phillies this offseason, is dealing with biceps soreness. His availability for the start of the season is in question now. While prospective closer
Corey Knebel and primary setup men
Brad Hand and
Jeurys Familia are all healthy and seemingly ready to go, the team's bullpen depth behind that trio is battered with injuries. In addition to Sherriff's injury,
Jose Alvarado (neck) has yet to pitch this spring and
Connor Brogdon (illness) is questionable for Opening Day.
