He was talking about his starting pitcher, Zack Wheeler, missing his next start because of an issue with a nail on his middle finger, that he injured putting on his pants.

"It happened yesterday putting on his pants, he caught his nail," Giradi said

Wheeler was scheduled to pitch on Saturday, he will now be pushed back to Monday with Spencer Howard moving up to Saturday.

Aaron Nola will start Game 1 of tomorrow's doubleheader and the bullpen will start Game 2. On Sunday it will be Zach Eflin and Vince Velasquez starting the doubleheaders.
