Phillies' Peter Bourjos: Likely headed to DL with shoulder injury
Bourjos (shoulder) is likely headed to the disabled list, CSN Philly's Jim Salisbury reports.
Analysis:
He injured his right shoulder running into the outfield wall while making a catch Tuesday. Bourjos sounded pessimistic when asked Wednesday if he would avoid a trip to the DL, indicating that he has some range of motion issues. With Aaron Altherr's rehab stint expiring Wednesday, Altherr's activation would be a natural corresponding move if Bourjos is placed on the DL Thursday. If that is indeed how things transpire, Altherr would figure to get the bulk of the at-bats while Bourjos is out.
