- Status: Activated on Saturday, May 3.
- Ranger Suárez is scheduled to make his first start of the season on Sunday, May 4 against the Diamondbacks. He was activated from the injured list a day early. Jose Ruiz landing on the 15-day IL with a neck spasm is the corresponding move to get Suárez back on the 26-man roster. Suárez returning and Ruiz going on the IL is the first Phillies pitching-related roster move of the season. — Last updated on May 3 by Destiny Lugardo
- Jose Ruiz (neck spasm)
- Status: 15-day injured list (retroactive to May 1)
- Ruiz, minutes before the start of the May 3 game against the Diamondbacks, was placed on the IL with a neck spasm. The Phillies needed to clear a roster spot for Suárez, so the Phillies get to retain Ruiz — and reliever Carlos Hernandez — for now. — Last updated on May 3 by Destiny Lugardo
- Andrew Painter (Tommy John surgery)
- Status: Will make next start with Triple-A Lehigh Valley
- Top prospect Andrew Painter should be in line to make his big-league debut in “July-ish” as Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski put it this offseason. He hasn’t pitched in a regular season game since injuring his elbow during the spring of 2023, but he should be ready to make an impact once he’s up, even in a limited workload.
- Painter is getting promoted to Triple-A. He will make his next start on May 8 against Worcester. — Last updated on May 3 by Destiny Lugardo
