They hope he can provide more of the same this season. The Phillies on Friday recalled Stutes, who replaced Phillippe Aumont in the bullpen.

The good news is it could have been worse. The Phillies placed Chase Utley on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with a Grade 1 strained right oblique. He is eligible to be activated June 5.
