Phillies placed 3B Placido Polanco on the 15-day disabled list with back inflammation. Polanco was hoping to remain on the active roster and play through the discomfort, but he hadn't experienced enough improvement by Thursday afternoon. The veteran third baseman is batting just .255/.300/.328 with 19 RBI in 82 games this season. He holds no fantasy value.
