One of the last pitchers cut during spring training this year, JoJo Romero was the first pitcher recalled when Archie Bradley went down with his oblique injury on April 11th.  Romero appeared in 11 games, pitching nine innings and allowing eight runs on 12 hits for a 7.00 ERA before he was placed on the injured list with an elbow injury on May 6th.  There's no current timetable for his return.
He's the second recent Phillies pitcher to wear #79 with Justin De Fratus (2012-2013) wearing the high number before him.
