Painter will start Wednesday's game against the Nationals in Philadelphia.
The Phillies addressed their lineup and bullpen with the additions of second baseman Luis Arraez, right-hander Caleb Kilian and left-hander Brooks Raley at the trade deadline, but they stood pat with their rotation. As a result, Painter will end up sticking around for another turn as the Phillies' fifth starter after he had a successful showing last weekend following his call-up from Triple-A Lehigh Valley. For just the third time in 15 big-league outings, Painter hit six innings in Friday's loss to the Orioles, giving up two earned runs on three hits and three walks while striking out six.
