Phillies put Gomez on DL, trade for reliever

The Phillies made a couple moves Tuesday.

First, they sent pitcher Jeanmar Gomez to the 10-day disabled list for an elbow impingement.

Then they recalled infielder Ty Kelly to take the roster spot.

Next, they announced Aaron Nola would make a rehab start Wednesday in Lehigh Valley.

And finally, they traded cash to Seattle for reliever Casey Fien

. The 33-year-old has a 15.00 ERA in six games for the Mariners, and will go to Lehigh Valley.

And now you’re all caught up.

Tim first found the Phillies as a little infant at Veteran’s Stadium, cheering on a Juan Samuel game-winning home run in his very first game. With the pinstripes in his blood, he witnessed Terry Mulholland’s 1990 no-hitter, “Steve Carlton Night” at the Vet, game three of the 1993 World Series, countless games during the charmed 2008 championship season and various road excursions. Since November 2007 Tim’s been writing about them daily at Phillies Nation, becoming one of the world’s most popular Phillies scribes. You can catch him on Twitter and Facebook, as well. When he’s not talking about the Phils he’s relaxing with a St. Bernardus ABT 12 or one of his many favored brews.
