Phillies lose Bryse Wilson off waivers.
The Philadelphia Phillies lost some depth to their organization.
Philadelphia DFA’d Bryse Wilson earlier this week, and he was placed on waivers. On June 24, the Chicago Cubs claimed the nine-year veteran pitcher amid their slew of injuries, according to Cubs reporter Meghan Montemurro.
“The Cubs have claimed RHP Bryse Wilson off waivers from the Phillies. RHP Christian Roa has been designated for assignment,” Montemurro wrote on BlueSky.
Wilson triggered his upward mobility clause earlier this month, which led to the Phillies selecting his contract on June 18. Yet, just four days later, he was DFA’d on June 22, and two days after that, he is no longer in the organization.
Wilson appeared in 1 game for the Phillies, pitching two scoreless innings, but it wasn’t enough to remain on the roster as Philadelphia opted to DFA him.
Wilson is 20-23 with a 4.80 ERA in 164 career MLB games over 463 innings, as he will add some much-needed depth to the Cubs’ pitching staff that is hindered by injuries.
