Summary
- Phillies added catcher Payton Henry to the roster.
- Rafael Marchán was placed on the 10-day injured list.
- Henry was called up before the series against the Yankees.
The Philadelphia Phillies made a roster move just before their home series against the New York Yankees. Catcher Payton Henry has been called up to the major league team. This decision follows the placement of catcher Rafael Marchán on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to July 23rd, due to left knee patellar tendinitis.
Henry's contract was officially selected from the triple-A Lehigh Valley affiliate. This move fills the vacancy on the 26-man roster created by Marchán's injury. To accommodate Henry on the 40-man roster, right-handed pitcher Brad Keller has been transferred to the 60-day injured list. Payton Henry is set to wear number 35 for the Phillies.
