Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels is scheduled to make his season debut Wednesday in Los Angeles against the Dodgers, Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia reports.
Hamels was shut down early in camp due to shoulder inflammation, but he's ready to make his long-anticipated return to the Phillies rotation after throwing seven innings in his final rehab start Thursday. He'll be looking to improve from last season's numbers after going 8-14 with a 3.60 ERA and 202:50 K:BB ratio in 220 innings.
