Talkin' Phils with Little Chase (10-18-13)

Hi everybody,

Some Phillies news to report so let's get started:

Phillies Coaching News:

Juan Samuel and Wally Joyner will be returning to the Phils next season in their same roles.  Samuel will once again be the 1st Base Coach and Joyner will return as Assistant Hitting Coach.  It was reported that Joyner would not be returning but that was obviously not the case.

Roster Changes:

Four players were outrighted to Triple A yesterday.  The players are Casper Wells (Outfield), Roger Bernadina (Outfield), Cesar Jimenez (Left Handed Relief Pitcher) and J.C. Ramirez (Right Handed Relief Pitcher).  John Lannan was also offered an opportunity to go to Triple A but he declined the assignment and is now a free agent.

** Update:  Casper Wells, Roger Bernadina and J.C. Ramirez declined to go to Triple A and are now free agents.

Talk to you soon,

Hi everybody,

Just wanted to let you know that Phillies relief pitcher Mike Adams was placed on the 15-day DL (Disabled List) on Saturday (June 22nd) with bicept tendinitis in his throwing arm.  This is Adams second DL stint this season and has been replaced on the roster by right-handed relief pitcher J.C. Ramirez.
