Roy Oswalt leaves the Philadelphia Phillies indefinitely
33-year old righty starting pitcher Roy Oswalt has left the Philadelphia Phillies indefinitely due to concern for his family and home in Mississippi as the area was smacked down due to tornadoes and severe storms. Oswalt has started 5 games so far this year for the Phillies and he is 3-1 with a 3.33 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP. The Phillies are holding out hope that Oswalt will be ready to make his next start after a couple of days off to check on things at home. Prayers are going out to the people of Mississippi and the family of Roy Oswalt.
