Lucas Sims Signs With Philadelphia Phillies After Leaving Washington Nationals

The Phillies have added a new right-handed relief pitcher to their roster. This comes shortly after the Nationals released him earlier in May. His season stats include a 13.87 ERA over 12 1/3 innings, with 13 strikeouts and 14 walks.

The Phillies' bullpen now includes Sims, along with Matt Strahm, José Ruiz, and Tanner Banks. The team plays the Rockies next at Coors Field. Phillies fans will watch to see how this new addition affects the team's performance in upcoming games.
