An All-Star pitcher might begin the season on the Philadelphia Phillies' injured list because of injuries to his left shoulder.

The Philadelphia Phillies could be without their star reliever for Opening Day since he's dealing with a shoulder issue.

According to NBC Sports Philadelphia’s Corey Seidman, Phillies All-Star reliever Matt Strahm revealed this about his rehab from his current shoulder injury:
