Andrew Painter - Could be held out of exhibitions The Phillies might hold Painter out of Grapefruit League games in order to preserve his workload, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Impact Painter hasn't pitched in a minor-league game since 2022 due to recovery from Tommy John surgery, so he's going to have his innings closely monitored in 2024. The most likely scenario appears to be him remaining in extended spring training for a slow ramp-up so he can be available for the Phillies later in the season. However, president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said earlier this month that no decisions have been made in regards to how Painter will be handled. The top prospect dazzled during Arizona Fall League play, posting a 2.30 ERA and 18:4 K:BB over 15.2 frames.

Rodolfo Castro - Back in Philadelphia on MiLB deal The Phillies re-signed Castro to a minor-league contract Wednesday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Impact Castro was outrighted off the Phillies' 40-man roster earlier this month but has returned on a minors back. The infielder missed the bulk of the 2024 season with shoulder and thumb injuries. The 25-year-old sports a career .219/.292/.380 batting line over parts of three major-league seasons.

Jean Cabrera - Protected from Rule 5 draft The Phillies added Cabrera to the 40-man roster Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Impact Cabrera logged a 3.39 ERA and 1.09 WHIP over 77 innings at High-A and a 4.85 ERA and 1.52 WHIP over 29.2 innings at Double-A last season. He may have worn down after the promotion to Double-A, and if he can recapture his form from High-A, where he had a 21.0 K-BB% and a 51.6 percent groundball rate, he could re-emerge as a fantasy prospect of note for late 2025 or 2026.

Mick Abel - Added to 40-man roster The Phillies added Abel to the 40-man roster Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Impact Abel's prospect stock has trended down each year since he was selected No. 15 overall in 2020. Initially he was seen as a potential No. 1 pitching prospect type, but he has never posted a walk rate below 10 percent and his stuff has stagnated. Abel logged a 6.46 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and a 117:78 K:BB in 108.2 innings at Triple-A last season and is unlikely to be more than an up-and-down arm in 2025.

John McMillon - Ousted from 40-man roster McMillon cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Impact The Phillies claimed McMillon off waivers from the Marlins earlier this month, but he'll lose his 40-man roster spot again with Philadelphia protecting some prospects from the Rule 5 draft. McMillon's career has been greatly affected by arm injuries, and he averaged 95.3 mph with his fastball in 2024 after he sat 99 mph with the pitch in 2023.
