  • Brothers' foreign pitcher Felix allowed 2 runs in 6 innings during his second-division start on July 30, 2026.
  • Felix has a 6.00 ERA in 6 starts for the first team this season, with no wins.
  • The team is considering activating new pitcher Jack O'Loughlin, potentially leading to Felix's release before the August 31st foreign player deadline.

CPBL foreign pitcher Felix made a strong showing in his latest second-division start on July 30, 2026, pitching six innings and allowing only two runs. This performance came after he was demoted to the minor league on July 25th.

Felix has struggled in his six starts for the first-division team this season, posting a 6.00 ERA and failing to secure a win. His most recent outing on July 24th against the Uni-Lions saw him issue six walks and give up four runs, leading to his demotion.

With the potential activation of new foreign pitcher Jack O'Loughlin, the Brothers face a roster decision. The team currently has four foreign players registered: De Paula, Sheng Chi-Chien, Luo Ko, and Felix. If O'Loughlin is to join the active roster, one of the current foreign players must be removed, and Felix is considered the most likely candidate.

Brothers' pitching coach Wang Chien-ming acknowledged Felix's inconsistency this season. He indicated that if O'Loughlin performs well in his upcoming second-division appearance, Felix could be in danger of being released before the August 31st deadline for foreign player registration.
