Zack Wheeler‘s minor league rehab start brings new meaning to the term “ribbing.”
The Philadelphia Phillies‘ ace missed the latter part of the 2025 season due to surgery to remove a blood clot in his throwing shoulder after being diagnosed with venous thoracic outlet syndrome. The surgery entailed the removal of a rib — which Wheeler decided to keep in a closet in his home.
That’s why, when he makes his rehab start Saturday for the Triple-A Lehigh Valley IronPigs, the team will be offering all-you-can-eat “Rehab Ribs” as part of their game-day menu.
