The Philadelphia Phillies placed right-handed pitcher Aaron Nola on the paternity list in a series of Friday moves ahead of their road series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
In a corresponding move, the Phillies recalled right-hander Nolan Hoffman from Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Philadelphia also optioned utility player Otto Kemp to Triple A and replaced him with outfielder Steward Berroa.
Nola, 32, is second in franchise history in strikeouts (3,031) and fourth in starts (296). This season, though, he's 3-4 with a 5.72 ERA in 11 starts. He wasn't scheduled to start this weekend after last pitching in Tuesday's 4-3 win at San Diego, allowing two runs on three hits over six innings.
Hoffman, 28, has made two appearances for the Phillies this season, allowing one run on five hits over 3 1/3 innings. He made his major league debut last season for Philadelphia, making a single appearance on Aug. 18.
Kemp, 26, is hitting .080 in 25 at-bats across 13 games this season. He's a career .216 hitter with eight homers and 28 RBIs, all of which came in 2025 when he debuted.
Berroa, 26, was acquired April 8 in a trade with the Milwaukee Brewers. He's hitting .250 in 38 games with Lehigh Valley this season and is a career .167 hitter at the major league level in 30 games with the Toronto Blue Jays (2024) and Brewers (2025).
