Kevin Frandsen was scratched from Friday's lineup with left ankle soreness. It's probably safe to call him day-to-day. Michael Martinez will start in his place at the hot corner.

Kevin Frandsen had a big night in Thursday's loss to the Brewers, going 3-for-5 with a double and three RBI. Frandsen has been receiving regular playing time at third base in the absence of Placido Polanco, and has responded by hitting .333 with a homer and five RBI over 63 at-bats. His three-run double off Marco Estrada in the fifth inning put the Phillies up 4-3. Frandsen holds very little mixed-league fantasy value, but he could be worth a look as a middle infielder in NL-only formats.

Phillies purchased the contract of INF Kevin Frandsen from Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The 30-year-old will serve as infield depth for the Phillies while third baseman Placido Polanco recovers from back inflammation. Frandsen was batting .302/.337/.396 in 418 plate appearances at the Triple-A level.

Phillies assigned INF Kevin Frandsen to minor league camp. Frandsen went 5-for-29 with three strikeouts this spring in the Grapefruit League. The 29-year-old never had a shot at cracking the Phillies' Opening Day roster.

Phillies re-signed INF Kevin Frandsen to a minor league contract. Frandsen was suspended 50 games in May after testing positive for unprescribed ritalin, but he played well at Triple-A Lehigh Valley once allowed back into the game and will serve as depth for the Phillies in 2012.
