The Phillies set their playoff roster and there is a surprise or two mixed in. Instead of going with 11 pitchers, the Phils have opted to go with 10. Adam Eaton and Geoff Geary are out, but Jose Mesa is in. To round out the 25, the club decided to go with three catchers.
Here’s who the Phillies will be sending out there for Wednesday’s opener of the NLDS:
Pitchers Antonio Alfonseca; Clay Condrey; Tom Gordon; Cole Hamels; Kyle Kendrick; Kyle Lohse; Jose Mesa; Jamie Moyer; Brett Myers; J.C. Romero
Catchers Rod Barajas; Chris Coste; Carlos Ruiz
Infielders Greg Dobbs; Wes Helms; Ryan Howard; Tadahito Iguchi; Abraham Nunez; Jimmy Rollins; Chase Utley
