Rangel was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley following the Philadelphia Phillies' 6-1 loss on Thursday. This decision comes after Rangel's start, where he pitched four scoreless innings.

He is returning to Triple-A after a brief stint with Philadelphia, which began on June 22. In his three appearances for the Phillies, Rangel allowed a total of five runs and struck out 12 batters over 13 innings. The Phillies' rotation spot Rangel occupied is scheduled to be filled one more time before the All-Star break. However, the team is considering using a bullpen game for that upcoming contest.
