The Philadelphia Phillies placed shortstop Trea Turner and third baseman Alec Bohm on the 10-day injured list Monday.
Turner hurt his right hamstring during the seventh inning of Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Miami Marlins, and manager Rob Thomson said Monday that an MRI exam revealed it was only a Grade 1 strain. Thomson said the Phillies are hopeful Turner can return in time for the playoffs.
Meanwhile, Bohm hit the IL with a left shoulder injury. The Phillies recalled infielders Otto Kemp and Donovan Walton from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in corresponding moves, and Kemp will start at third base for Philadelphia on Monday against the visiting New York Mets.
Utility man Edmundo Sosa draws in at shortstop for Turner, who sustained his injury while legging out a grounder and reaching first on a throwing error.
'It was just kind of grabbing on me. It didn't feel good,' Turner said after the game. 'I felt if I could have kept going, I would have.'
Turner, 32, entered Monday leading the National League with a .305 batting average. The three-time All-Star also leads the league with 179 hits and has 15 homers and 69 RBIs in 140 games.
Bohm, 29, is batting .272 with nine home runs and 51 RBIs through 111 games this year. An All-Star in 2024, he's spent all six of his MLB seasons with the Phillies.
Kemp, 25, made his major league debut with Philadelphia earlier this year and has already plugged in at third base, first base and left field. He batted .228 with four homers and 17 RBIs in 46 games from June 7-Aug. 15.
Walton, 31, has appeared in 70 major league games for the Seattle Mariners (2019-22) and San Francisco Giants (2022, 2024), batting .174 lifetime with four homers and 22 RBIs. He's batted .339 in 50 games at Lehigh Valley since the Phillies purchased his contract from the Mets on July 1.
Philadelphia (83-60) enters the week with a seven-game lead over the Mets in the NL East.
