The Phillies drafted Brogdon in the 10th round of the 2017 MLB Draft. He was originally intended to be a starting pitcher but became a reliever in the minor leagues to make room in the starting rotation.
Brogdon played for three seasons in the Phillies’ farm system and was invited to an alternative training site after the 2020 minor league season was cancelled. He made his MLB debut on August 13, 2020, giving up three runs to the Baltimore Orioles, but he improved his performance in September.
