He was very good in the minors. Didn’t impress at the majors, but only had one appearance.
If he’s better than Nick Nelson & Mark Appel, he has a spot in this bullpen & could help in the 5th or 6th.
No risk move with upside. If he stinks, bye bye.

By Nathan Borkowski Modified 01 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Colorado Rockies v Seattle Mariners Fans were left surprised as the Toronto Blue Jays and Philadelphia Phillies completed a rare late-August trade for pitcher Vinny Nittoli. Nittoli is a minor league player, which means he is still eligible to be traded, despite being past the August 2nd deadline. It was a virtually no-risk move for both teams. Nittoli was one day away from opting out of his contract with the Toronto Blue Jays and would have become a free agent. This trade allows them to get something back for the talented pitcher, rather than letting him walk for nothing. The Philadelphia Phillies get a young relief pitcher with plenty of upside, at a time when quality pitching is at a premium. Jeff Passan was the first to report on this trade via Twitter.

The move was not universally praised by Phillies fans, especially after the heartbreaking loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Max Fried Enthusiast@atlhoe12345@JeffPassan not gonna help them being outscored 25-3 by the dbacks17@JeffPassan not gonna help them being outscored 25-3 by the dbacks The Philadelphia Phillies will need to win big in September to make the postseason. If Vinny Nittoli is able to help them get there, he will be a tremendous acquisition.

Recent struggles may have forced this move to happen sooner rather than later. Isaac@philly_isaac@JeffPassan after this series in arizona, we need all the pitching we can get8@JeffPassan after this series in arizona, we need all the pitching we can get This move won't make the Phillies one of the top teams in the MLB, but it could help them improve. At this point in the season, finding ways to improve the roster is nearly impossible. jayden@PhilliesJayden@JeffPassan surely this will fix all of our problems!2@JeffPassan surely this will fix all of our problems!

Brave Toaster@BraveToaster3@JeffPassan Well, most of the Phillies pen pitch like minor leaguers so he should fit right in.@JeffPassan Well, most of the Phillies pen pitch like minor leaguers so he should fit right in. This was a somewhat surprising move by the Toronto Blue Jays, who are usually able to capitalize on their talented prospects.
