Coghlan can request his release if he is not added to the Phillies' roster by Sunday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Phillies actually have 48 hours from Sunday to put Coghlan on their roster, presumably to give them time to make another roster move since they do not have an open spot on their 40-man roster. Coghlan could also request his immediate release Sunday to pursue another opportunity. He is competing with Brock Stassi, Daniel Nava and Jesmuel Valentin for one of two bench jobs.
