The Philadelphia Phillies have officially placed third baseman Alec Bohm (left shoulder cyst) and shortstop Trea Turner (right hamstring strain) on the 10-day injured list. 

  • Alec Bohm‘s shoulder issue has been identified as a cyst. Manager Rob Thomson has indicated that Bohm is expected to return following the minimum 10-day IL stay, though no precise timeline has been given.
  • Trea Turner exited Sunday’s game against the Marlins with a right hamstring strain. Thankfully, Thomson confirmed the strain is a Grade 1, the least severe classification—offering hope he’ll be ready when it counts: for the 2025 MLB postseason.

Turner was in the midst of a standout season, leading the National League with a .305 average, the only player in the league to surpass the .300 mark. He also registered 15 home runs, 69 RBIs, 31 doubles, 7 triples, 36 stolen bases, and an .814 OPS.

Slugger Bryce Harper will slide into the leadoff spot, at least for the opener of a critical four-game series against the New York Mets. To help fill the infield void, the Phillies have called up utility man Otto Kemp and infielder Donovan Walton from Triple-A Lehigh Valley, while Edmundo Sosa is expected to handle regular duties at shortstop. The Phillies currently lead New York by 7.0-games in the National League East and the Los Angeles Dodgers by 4.0-games for the No. 2 seed in the National League playoffs.
