There is a minor-league pitcher who could help the Philadelphia Phillies during the stretch run. While the Phillies have a few pitching prospects at Triple-A Lehigh Valley, there is a player with MLB experience who can make an impact during the stretch run.

During the stretch run in 2023, the Phillies called up Orion Kerkering, who became a key part of the Phillies postseason bullpen. There are some major differences between the two situations. However, Gilbert is a player that could have a similar impact.
