Righty Brian Sanches had his contract selected from Lehigh Valley today. He fills the roster spot of David Herndon who was DL’d last night.
In 8 appearances with the Iron Pigs this year, Sanches is 1-0 with a 3.22 ERA. He has allowed 17 hits in just 14 innings, which is a relatively high number for a middle-reliever, but has also struck out 12. Sanches is pitching to contact, evident by his 2 walks.
It was thought that lefty Jake Diekman would get the call, however, the Phillies are instead going with Sanches who has major league experience.
