Three minor league players added to Phillies’ 40-man roster

Outfielder Quintin Berry, lefthander Yohan Flande and righthander Jesus Sanchez had their contracts selected to the Philadelphia Phillies’ 40-man roster, the club announced today.

Berry, who turns 25 on Saturday, spent this past season with Double-A Reading. He hit .266 with five home runs, 28 RBIs and 48 stolen bases in 135 games and played exclusively in center field. A fifth-round selection in the 2006 draft, Berry has 173 stolen bases in four minor league seasons.

Flande, 23, split the season between Single-A Clearwater and Reading. In a combined 25 starts, he went 10-5 with a 3.40 ERA and allowed six home runs in 145.2 innings. Flande, a native of the Dominican Republic, was originally signed by the Phillies as an amateur free agent in 2004.
