The Phillies made a ton of roster moves on Monday, but most importantly, the update on Trea Turner’s hamstring:

Rob Thomson says Trea Turner has Grade 1 hamstring strain. Rob says it’s better than they thought. The Phils hope Trea is back for the playoffs.

The Phillies believe Turner’s situation is a positive outcome, and they expect him to be ready for the postseason, potentially even earlier.

Alec Bohm is heading to the 10-day IL with shoulder soreness, and he’ll have to receive injections over the next few days. Rob Thomson said they expect Bohm back once the 10-day limit is up.

Some other updates:

• Otto Kemp was recalled and will start at third base in game 1 against the Mets
• The Phillies selected the contract of INF Donovan Walton, who hit .270 with 13 homers and 65 RBIs in AAA this season between Syracuse and Lehigh Valley
• Brandon Marsh is not in the lineup due to the flu. Thomson said Marsh is at Citizens Bank Park sleeping
• Bryce Harper is hitting leadoff for the first time since the hangover game in 2022, the day after the Phillies clinched a postseason berth.
• Daniel Robert is heading to the 60-day IL, meaning his season is over

Daniel Robert just told @sportsdoctormd and me that he has “a pretty gnarly” flexor strain. He isn’t expected to need surgery, but is shut down from throwing for three weeks, so season is likely over.
