Phillies Activate Alec Bohm From IL Before Arizona Series

Philadelphia seeks to secure a first-round bye with its lineup nearing full strength.

Overview

  • Bohm was reinstated from the 10-day injured list after left shoulder inflammation and is expected to play against the Diamondbacks.
  • Infielder Rafael Lantigua was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley following a brief call-up in which he did not record an at-bat.
  • Outfielder Brewer Hicklen cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A after a recent designation for assignment.
  • The Phillies went 8-2 without Alec Bohm and Trea Turner, clinching a playoff berth and the NL East while moving closer to a first-round bye; their magic number was four entering the series.
  • Trea Turner is reportedly ahead of schedule in his recovery and could return during next week’s season-ending homestand.
