Bryce Harper has been placed on the IL after undergoing wrist inflammation. This is unfortunate as the Phillies have been 0-5 since missing Harper.
Kemp is an undrafted free agent out of Division II who has made a tremendous impact in the minors. During his time, he has hit .313/.416/.594 in 269 plate appearances for Lehigh High Valley and has ascended the minor league rankings.
Today, he went 0-3 against Heaney (3.24) and struck out two. I personally caught his major league debut and thought he just may have been nervous but considering he played a premium position. He will have to bounce back when he faces stud Paul Skenes (2.05)!
