Phillies' Zack Wheeler dealing with blood clot in right arm; retired MLB team physician weighs in
Philadelphia Phillies star pitcher Zack Wheeler was placed on the injured list with a blood clot in his right arm on Saturday, sparking concerns around MLB.
The Birds won it all after the MVP favorite went down. Wheeler is the best, but the team already has won games despite absences this season.
We've reached the point in the season, with roughly six weeks to go, when every injury has a chance to be a season-ender. So when the clear front-runner for NL Cy Young lands on the IL, it's nothing short of a gut punch.
