Philadelphia Phillies Claim T.J. Bohn from Atlanta Braves
09/24/2007 -- Outfielder T.J. Bohn was claimed by the Philadelphia Phillies this afternoon off waivers from the Atlanta Braves, Assistant General Manager Ruben Amaro Jr. announced today.
Originally selected by Seattle in the 30th round of the 2002 draft, Bohn has appeared in 18 major league games, all with the Mariners in 2006. In limited play, he hit .143 (2-14) with one home run and two RBI.
T.J. Bohn, 27, began the season with triple-A Richmond and hit .241 with one home run and 14 RBI over 46 games. The St. Louis Park, Minn. native played in 11 games for the Gulf Coast raves where he had an 8-game run-scoring streak before finishing out the season with double-A Mississippi, batting .224 in 23 games.
To make room for Bohn on the 40-man roster, the Phillies placed RHP Yoel Hernandez on the 60-day disabled list.
