Third baseman Michael Young has been removed from the MLB bereavement list.

Young had departed the team last Wednesday. In his absence, the Phillies called up rookie infielder Cesar Hernandez. Upon Young's return, the Phillies will send infielder Michael Martinez back to triple A Lehigh Valley.

Young will not be in the starting lineup tonight, with Freddy Galvis getting the start at third base while Kyle Kendrick goes for his sixth win.
