Insight, observations (and whatever else comes to mind) on the trails of the team that ended the quarter century-long parade drought in the City of Brotherly Love - the Philadelphia Phillies.

Bastardo to fly back to Philly, likely to miss next start

Just got word that Antonio Bastardo, who left Thursday's game in Tampa with shoulder tightness, will fly back to Philadelphia sometime in the next two days.

He has an appointment to meet with team physician Dr. Michael Ciccotti Monday morning.

This would lead me to believe his next start is in jeopardy; but that might be jumping to conclusions.

According to a Phils official, he is "likely" to miss his next start.

Bastardo is tentatively on tap to start Wednesday, but an off-day in the schedule (the Phils don't play Monday), gives the team flexibility for a little while.
