2 weeks agoPhillies Select Rafael Lantigua
Rafael Lantigua was added to the Phillies’ major-league roster; Edmundo Sosa placed on 10-day injured list with a right groin strain; Brewer Hicklen DFA'd.
The Phillies announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander Walker Buehler and placed left-hander Jose Alvarado on the 15-injured list, moves which were previously reported. Alvarado's injury wasn't specified in that earlier reporting but the Phils announced it as a left forearm strain, retroactive to September 11th. The severity is still unclear. To open a 40-man spot for Buehler, righty Matt Manning has been designated for assignment.
