Phillies purchased the contract of LHP Jack Taschner from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
Keep in mind that corresponding moves are no longer necessary in most cases because teams are now allowed to carry 40 players. Taschner, 31, was designated for assignment in July after posting a 5.20 ERA, 1.92 WHIP and 17/20 K/BB ratio in 27 2/3 innings with the Phillies. He went 2-0 with a 2.08 ERA in 20 games at the Triple-A level and will be used as a situational left-hander.
