Devin Sweet Leaves After Being Hit By Line Drive
The Athletic's Matt Gelb reports that Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Devin Sweet (triceps) left Tuesday's Grapefruit League game against the Tampa Bay Rays after being hit by a line drive on his right triceps. Sweet recorded just one out in the outing before taking a line drive off the bat of first baseman Yandy Diaz. The Phillies are calling the 28-year-old's injury merely a right-triceps contusion for now, but he could go for more testing. Barring a more serious injury that is discovered in his arm, Sweet should be considered day-to-day in camp. Sweet did not pitch at all in the big leagues in 2024 after making his MLB debut in 2023 with the Seattle Mariners and Athletics, going 1-0 with a 10.38 ERA, 1.85 WHIP, six strikeouts and six walks in 8 2/3 innings over just seven appearances out of the bullpen. He's merely competing for a bullpen spot in Philly in spring training and isn't on the fantasy radar.
