Urquidy Shines in Phils Debut, Kerkering Struggles Continue
NEW YORK — Nobody knows what would have happened if Jesús Luzardo had started on Friday night at Citi Field, just like nobody knows what would have happened if he had started last Saturday at Truist Park.

Bowlan Avoids IL to Strengthen Phillies Bullpen for October
NEW YORK — Phillies reliever Jonathan Bowlan has a “mild” right groin strain, but he will not be placed on the 15-day injured list.
