On Thursday, the Philadelphia Phillies will finish their series with the Washington Nationals (at home).
They are coming off a 10-4 loss on Wednesday.
John Stolnis of The Good Phight wrote: “The two relievers the Phillies acquired at the trade deadline’s Wednesday night against the Nationals: Brooks Raley: 1 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 1 HR Caleb Kilian: 0.1 IP, 1 H, 5 runs (4 ER), 2 BB, 1 K Allowed 7 of 11 batters to reach base, with Raley holding a 1-run lead and Kilian entering the 11th inning tied. Not ideal!”

Looking At Trivino

Over 337 career games, Trivino has gone 24-27 with a 4.07 ERA.

It will be interesting to see if anyone picks up Trivino before the end of the 2026 season.
While he has struggled this year, he is still a veteran with a lot of experience that could help a team with pitching depth.
