Hazelwood native and NY Yankees pitcher David Phelps is back in the bullpen.
After more than two months on the disabled list with a right forearm injury that began giving him trouble on July 4, Phelps was activated on Saturday.
Before his forearm began to wear he was the Yankees fifth starter, and had a 6-5 record with a 5.01 ERA in his 18 game appearances.
Just two weeks ago, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said he had no timeline for when Phelps would be ready to return. See: David Phelps No Closer to Resuming Yankees Role, says Joe Girardi
