Phillies are back: Zack Wheeler’s rib, Nick Castellanos’ locker

Day 1 of Phillies spring training is in the books.

Phillies ace Zack Wheeler talked about his recovery from thoracic outlet decompression surgery in September, which required the removal of the first rib near his right shoulder. Wheeler revealed that he kept the rib, and it’s sitting in a case in his closet at home!

Wheeler is missing a rib and Nick Castellanos is missing a locker in the Phillies’ clubhouse. He’s still on the 40-man roster, but he won’t be much longer.

Plus, the plan for Aidan Miller, Aaron Nola’s decision to pitch for Italy in the WBC and Orion Kerkering’s tweaked hamstring.
