The Phillies released Bailey on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey was struggling of late, allowing 19 runs on 24 hits with an 18:8 K:BB over 18.1 innings since the beginning of June. He should be able to find an opportunity with another club.

The Phillies have requested UR waivers for the purpose of granting Bailey his unconditional release, Meghan Montemurro of The News Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey was designated for assignment on Tuesday after producing an ERA over 10 since June and is now expected to be released from the ball club entirely. At only 32 years old and a career 3.20 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in the majors, it seems likely he will be scooped up by another team in the future, but for now, he's headed for free agency.

Bailey has been designated for assignment by the Phillies on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey has really struggled over his last 10 outings with the Phillies, posting a 13.50 ERA in eight innings of relief. The 32-year-old doesn't really factor in the Phillies long-term plans, so this move opens up more innings for their young arms to get work. Right-hander Luis Garcia has been recalled by the Phillies.

Bailey allowed two runs on three hits Sunday and was tagged with his first loss of the season.
EDGE Analysis
The two runs came on a home run by Jeff Francoeur. Since the beginning of June, Bailey has allowed 19 runs on 24 hits with an 18:8 K:BB over 18.1 innings. His roster spot could be in jeopardy if he isn't able to turn things around soon.

Bailey tossed two scoreless innings in a 9-3 loss to the Marlins on Thursday. He allowed two hits and struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey was in need of a clean outing. He had allowed at least one run in each of his three prior appearances since coming off the disabled list earlier this month.

Bailey (hamstring) was activated from the DL on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Bailey is back ahead of Friday's game following a three-week stint on the disabled list. Bailey needed just one rehab appearance with Triple-A Lehigh Valley to prove his health -- he retired the side on 12 pitches, striking out two in the outing. The right-hander has managed three holds in 25 appearances this season.

Manager Pete Mackanin said he expects Bailey (hamstring) to be activated from the disabled list before Friday's game, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Phillies opened up a roster spot for Bailey after Thursday's game by optioning Adam Morgan to Triple-A. Bailey has been sidelined since June 22 with a mild hamstring strain.

Bailey will begin a minor league rehab at Triple-A Wednesday, Ryan Lawrence of the Philly Voice reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey has pitched 26 innings for the Phillies so far in 2016, notching a 4.39 ERA and striking out 28. He should slot back into a late-inning role upon his return. Jeanmar Gomez has been very good closing games this year for the Phillies, so Bailey isn't considered a threat to his job.

Bailey (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day DL Friday with a left hamstring strain.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey left Wednesday's game with a strained hamstring and will require a trip to the DL to return to full strength. The injury is considered mild so it's expected that he should return to the Phillies bullpen as soon as he's eligible on July 9. The 32-year-old relief man has given up nine earned runs over his last 11 innings of work (7.36 ERA).

Bailey is considered day-to-day after leaving Wednesday's game with a mild left hamstring strain, Meghan Montemurro of The News Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey will be reevaluated Thursday, at which point his status and timetable should be revealed. Even if the 32-year-old reliever is forced to miss time, it likely won't have much of an impact on the majority of fantasy leagues, but those interested should check back for updates on his status.
