Neshek (shoulder) could return from the 10-day injured list sometime over Philadelphia's upcoming road trip, which runs from June 14 to June 20 Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Neshek has been on the shelf since May 25 due to rotator cuff inflammation, though he's expected to return to the club in mid-June if everything goes according to plan. It's unclear at this point whether he's resumed throwing off a mound, but the Phillies appear confident that the right-hander will be back within the next two weeks.

Neshek (shoulder) was diagnosed with rotator cuff inflammation after undergoing an MRI on Sunday, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Neshek landed on the injured list Saturday with what was originally labeled a right shoulder strain, though the MRI narrowed the injury to his rotator cuff. There is no official timeline for his return at this point, but it appears the 38-year-old is facing an extended absence. The Phillies do expect Neshek to return this season.

Neshek was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a right shoulder strain, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The injury had previously been labeled shoulder soreness, but a strain is more serious. There is no timetable for his return, but it would not be surprising if he missed most or all of June. J.D. Hammer was called up from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move.

Neshek allowed three runs on three hits in two-thirds of an inning Thursday against the Cubs, striking out two and allowing two home runs.
EDGE Analysis
Neshek was brought in with a five-run lead in the bottom of the seventh but came close to blowing it, allowing a two-run homer to Kyle Schwarber and a solo shot to Anthony Rizzo. It's hardly a surprise that both homers were hit by lefties, as Neshek is something of a righty specialist, with lefties owning a career .741 OPS against him compared to righties' .551 mark. The 38-year-old hasn't performed up to his usual standards this season, as his 4.67 ERA would be his highest mark since 2010 and his 12.0 percent strikeout rate would be the lowest mark of his career.

Neshak allowed one hit in the ninth inning but held the Rockies scoreless to earn the save Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Neshak was called upon in the ninth inning with Hector Neris having pitched both Friday and Saturday. He filled in well, allowing only a two-out single prior to closing out the game. While Neris appears to be the primary closer, Neshak now has three saves on the season, managing a 3.24 ERA and 1.20 WHIP with seven strikeouts across 16.2 innings.

Neshek picked up a save against the Brewers on Monday, working around one hit to throw a scoreless ninth inning and preserve a 7-4 victory. He didn't record a walk or a strikeout.
EDGE Analysis
It was the second save of the season for the right-hander, who lowered his ERA to 3.68 through 14.2 innings. This was Neshek's first save since April 9, so he doesn't figure to see much more than the occasional save opportunity, even with David Robertson (elbow) set to remain on the injured list for at least a few more weeks.

Neshek (0-1) was handed the loss after giving up an unearned run in the 11th inning Monday against the Mets. He struck out one, walked one and allowed one hit in his inning of work.
EDGE Analysis
Neshek allowed the first two batters to reach base but then did what he could to get out of the inning. He forced a pop out and a strikeout, but a two-out error by Rhys Hoskins allowed the winning run to score. Neshek still has strong numbers on the season, with a 1.17 ERA, a 1.04 WHIP and one save in 7.2 innings.
