Sam Coonrod - Moves to 60-day ILCoonrod (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday.
ImpactCoonrod has been dealing with a shoulder strain since late March, but he recently increased his throwing distance to 90 feet. However, he'll be unavailable until at least early June after being transferred to the 60-day IL. The move makes room for right-hander Andrew Bellatti, whose contract was selected Thursday.

Andrew Bellatti - Contract selected by PhilliesBellatti's contract was selected by the Phillies on Thursday.
ImpactThe 30-year-old righty owns a 3.71 ERA in 26.2 career major-league innings, though his 19.3 percent strikeout rate and 10.5 percent walk rate suggest that number is due to rise. He'll fill a low-leverage role for the Phillies for now after Connor Brogdon and Damon Jones were optioned Wednesday.

Johan Camargo - Draws fourth start in five gamesCamargo will start at third base and bat seventh in Thursday's game against the Marlins.
ImpactCamargo will find himself in the starting nine for the fourth time in five games, this time replacing the injured Jean Segura (hand). The Phillies are hopeful Segura will be back later in the weekend, but Camargo's ability to play the other three infield spots as well as the two corner-outfield spots could still help him pick up a few starts every week, especially while he's performing well at the plate. He's recorded five hits in 10 at-bats to begin the 2022 campaign.
