Matt Strahm was scheduled to appear Monday in the Philadelphia Phillies' spring training game against the Tampa Bay Rays but was unable to give it a go due to fingernail irritation on his throwing hand. The good news is that it's not considered anything serious. The bad news is that this is becoming a pattern for the reliever, who seems to run into problems whenever he needs to do any packing.
Matt Strahm was supposed to pitch today, but he has left middle fingernail irritation after packing this morning. Not believed to be serious. He is still expected to make the Opening Day roster.
