Outrighted to Triple-A
The Phillies outrighted Nelson to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Nelson was previously outrighted off the 40-man roster last month, so he could elect free agency if he wants. He could otherwise stick around the organization as relief depth.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2021
2020
Nelson made 47 appearances for the Phillies in 2022, mostly as a low-leverage reliever, but he threw just a single big-league outing in 2023. He suffered a hamstring strain in mid-March, was optioned once he got healthy in early May, and promptly injured the same hamstring again 10 days later. While he was activated again in early June, he spent almost the entirety of the rest of the year with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, only getting called up to make a single bulk-relief appearance at the start of October. Nelson's performances in 20 starts for Lehigh Valley hardly indicate that he should have been called up sooner. Both his 17.7% strikeout rate and 9.9% walk rate were poor, leading to a FIP (5.31) which was far worse than his already unimpressive 4.35 ERA. With better health in 2024, Nelson could spend more time in the majors, but the Phillies are unlikely to use him in anything other than long relief.
