The pitcher is back in the eight-hole for the Phillies as manager Pete Mackanin tries anything to spark his offense.
The Phillies have lost 16 of their last 20 games and been outscored 31-7 the last three nights. They continue to muster little offense at home, where they've been out-homered 48-26.
So Adam Morgan bats eighth Friday night against fellow lefty Robbie Ray of the Diamondbacks.
Cody Asche bats second for the Phils, his first start in the two-hole since Sept. 25, 2014. The Phillies need more offense from that spot with Odubel Herrera getting on base so much as the leadoff man. Phillies two-hole hitters have a .224 batting average and .630 OPS, both third-worst in the majors, ahead of only Atlanta and Oakland.
Tommy Joseph moves up a spot from fourth to third, swapping with Maikel Franco.
