CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) -The Phillies have optioned pitcher Kyle Kendrick to their minor league camp, cutting the candidates for the final spot in the rotation to three.
Kendrick has won 21 games for the Phillies since June of 2007. He was competing for the fifth-starter spot with veteran Chan Ho Park, rookie J.A. Happ and top prospect Carlos Carrasco. The move was announced Monday.
Kendrick struggled in the second half of last season and was 1-3 with a 9.20 ERA in four Grapefruit League games this spring.
Top catching prospect Lou Marson and infielder Brad Harman were also sent to minor league camp.
