Phillies Place Closer Jhoan Duran on 15-Day IL with Oblique Strain

The Philadelphia Phillies placed closer Jhoan Duran on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a mild left oblique strain. The move is retroactive to Wednesday, as confirmed by manager Rob Thomson. Duran's injury sidelines the reliever as he begins his recovery process. In a corresponding roster move, the team called up Felix Reyes from the minors to bolster the bullpen depth while Duran is unavailable. The team will monitor Duran's progress as he works to return to the active roster.
