Roy Oswalt, who recently returned to the Phillies after spending some time with family in the wake of the tornados down south, could potentially be headed for a stint on the DL with lower back pain.
↵Oswalt will not make his scheduled start against the Braves tomorrow and Ruben Amaro admitted that he could “possibly go on the DL.”
↵↵↵“He felt a little discomfort in Arizona… and we feel like we could be putting him in danger if we throw him out there [Saturday],” Amaro added.

Kyle Kendrick will make the start instead with Vance Worley “on call” in the bullpen.
↵Worley would have been scheduled to pitch on Monday, but it now looks like Joe Blanton will come off the DL on that day make the start that night.
