The Phillies re-signed Dahl to a minor-league contract Monday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl elected for free agency earlier this month after the Phillies removed him from their 40-man roster, but he's returned to the organization on a new deal. The 30-year-old outfielder will report this week to Triple-A Lehigh Valley, where he's posted a 1.076 OPS this season.

Dahl elected free agency Wednesday after clearing waivers.
EDGE Analysis
Rather than heading back to Triple-A Lehigh Valley after the Phillies designated him for assignment Tuesday, Dahl will look for an opportunity in another organization. The 30-year-old outfielder posted a 1.076 OPS over 43 games for Lehigh Valley earlier this season but struggled during his time in the big leagues with Philadelphia, slashing .207/.242/.397 with a 33.9 percent strikeout rate over 62 plate appearances.

The Phillies designated Dahl for assignment Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After getting called up from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on June 3, Dahl appeared in 19 games and produced a .639 OPS with a 33.9 percent strikeout rate over 62 plate appearances during his time on the big-league roster. With all of Brandon Marsh, Bryce Harper (hamstring) and Kyle Schwarber (groin) having since moved past their respective injuries, the Phillies no longer had room on the roster for Dahl.

Dahl is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl had started in the Phillies' last four matchups with right-handed pitchers, but he'll hit the bench Sunday against Atlanta righty Reynaldo Lopez. With Dahl taking a seat, Nick Castellanos will serve as the Phillies' designated hitter while Whit Merrifield picks up a start in the corner outfield.

Dahl is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl had been on the bench in two of the Phillies' previous three games, though each came against a left-handed pitcher. On Friday, righty Kyle Tyler will toe the rubber for Miami, but the lefty-hitting Dahl still won't crack the starting nine. Whit Merrifield, Johan Rojas and Brandon Marsh fill the outfield from left to right.

Dahl went 2-for-4 with two RBI Sunday against the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Dahl started his first game since Wednesday and contributed two hits, including a two-run knock in the sixth that provided the Phillies with all the insurance they would need. This follows a performance Saturday that saw him come off the bench to launch a two-run blast, his third since making his first appearance of the season on June 3. Through 13 games (10 starts) and 39 at-bats, Dahl is batting .231 with three homers, seven RBI and five runs scored.

Dahl is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
The Padres are starting right-hander Michael King, but the left-handed hitting Dahl nonetheless finds himself on the bench to begin this one. Brandon Marsh will play left field and Cristian Pache is getting the start in center.
