Phillies activate Jerad Eickhoff from disabled list, expand roster to 33
The Phillies major-league roster grew to 33 Monday as the team activated Jerad Eickhoff from the disabled list. He has not pitched at all this season.
The Phillies are going all-out with roster expansion this September with the hope of reaching the playoffs for the first time in seven years. They added another player to the team Monday by activating Jerad Eickhoff from the 60-day disabled list. In order to open a space on the 40-man roster, the team designated Ben Lively for assignment.
