Guardians vs Phillies

Friday, May 22, 2026 at 3:40 PM PDT — Citizens Bank Park

Injury Report

Guardians
  • Gabriel AriasIR
    Expected return: May 15

    no

  • Shawn ArmstrongIR
    Expected return: May 11

    Armstrong has been a key part of Cleveland's bullpen this season, working in 12 games and registering three holds while posting a 4.22 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 13:7 K:BB over 10.2 innings. To take his spot in the bullpen, the Guardians brought Colin Holderman up from from Triple-A Columbus.

Phillies
  • Kyle BackhusIR
    Expected return: May 12

    It's unclear how long Backhus' elbow has been bothering him, but he hadn't pitched since Saturday. Trevor Richards will assume his spot on the roster and in the bullpen.

  • Max LazarIR
    Expected return: May 23

    Lazar has been out all season with a left oblique strain he suffered during the World Baseball Classic while playing for Team Israel. He is on the 60-day injured list and not eligible to return until late May, so Lazar will make several rehab appearances before the Phillies consider adding him back to their active roster.

  • Zach PopIR
    Expected return: May 11

    Pop evidently suffered the injury during an opener assignment Sunday against the Diamondbacks. He will be eligible for activation April 28, but it's too soon to know whether he will be back on that date. Kyle Backhus has taken Pop's spot on the roster and in the Philadelphia bullpen.
