EDGE Analysis

Hellickson allowed a home run to Aledmys Diaz in the game and has now given up 12 homers in his last eight starts. He has a 6.43 ERA over that stretch with a 22:17 K:BB in 42 innings. The Phillies had hoped to flip Hellickson for a prospect at the trade deadline, but it is hard to see a contender being interested given how poorly he has pitched of late. He faces the Red Sox at home in his next start.
