The Phillies added four players to their minor league system to protect them from being in the Rule 5 Draft next month.
Righthander Phillippe Aumont, lefthander Jake Diekman, outfielder Tyson Gillies, and cathcer Sebastian Valle.
Aumont (22) and Gillies (23) were prospects aquired in 2009, in the trade that sent Cliff Lee to the Seattle Mariners (Remember how much that one hurt? But he is back with the Phillies, so it all worked out).
Diekman (25), according to Jim Salisbury of CSNPhilly.com, has some control issues, but cna develop into a situational or full inning reliever.
Valle (21), is the Phillie's top catching prospect.
