Darick Hall is back with the Phillies and will start against right-handers. “It has been a rollercoaster,” he said of his year to date.
Said Hall:"It has been a rollercoaster, but I've just tried to ride it every step of the way. Just focus on what's my next goal. And that really kept me grounded and helped me focus on the right things. Not the scenario. That's really what got me to this point. The next thing is just perform, right? We're back to focusing on performing, which is a beautiful thing."
"You think about it a little bit," he admitted."It's just unfortunate. But what can you do? Your job as a player is just to move forward and get back to what you do. That's the only thing I could focus on. Because if you thought about yourself in that instance, I feel it could take you on a downhill spiral. Versus, 'Hey, let's try to get some forward momentum here and just work our way back.
Of course, it remains an open question what will happen when Bryce Harper is cleared to play first base, which is expected to happen sometime after the All-Star Game but before the August 1 trade deadline.
