Something must be brewing. Either that, or for the first time in over a decade the Phillies are prepared to hand a youngster (Joe Bisenius or Zack Segovia) a prominent role in a mix-and-match bullpen.
Jim Ed Warden, who many thought earlier Wednesday was about to make the Opening Day roster, cleared waivers and was grabbed by his former club Cleveland, according to a report on The News Journal out of Wilmington, Delaware.
That leaves Tom Gordon, Antonio Alfonseca, Ryan Madson, Geoff Geary, Matt Smith and likely Clay Condrey with cemented spots in the bullpen. The Phillies could still pick up a relief pitcher via trade or off waivers before Opening Day on April 2 versus Atlanta.
Earlier Wednesday, the club released outfielder Karim Garcia.
