Phillies add three players to the roster

It is reported that the Phillies selected center fielder Quintin Berry, left-hander Yohan Flande and right-hander Jesus Sanchez and add them to the 40-man roster. Now the team has 30 players. This movement can ensure that Berry, Flande and Sanchez won't be picked up by another team during December's Rule 5 Draft.

Berry was the fifth-round Draft pick in 2006 in four Minor League seasons and has 173 stolen bases in phillies jersey. Flande split the season between Class A Clearwater and Reading. Sanchez was acquired from the Yankees in exchange of Bobby Abreu to New York in 2006.
