Harrison requested and was granted his release by the Phillies on Tuesday, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 33-year-old joined Philly on a minor-league deal in November, and his request could mean he was unlikely to make the Opening Day roster. Harrison appeared in 36 games with the Tigers last season before going down with injury and had a .175/.218/.263 slash line.

Harrison will be part of the Phillies' 60-man roster.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison, who is not on the 40-man roster, enters a crowded mix of veterans competing for reserve utility infield spots. Neil Walker, Logan Forsythe and Phil Gosselin are all in similar boats as non-roster invites looking to earn the same role. Harrison will have to bounce back from a rough season in Detroit last year, as he saw a career-low .480 OPS across just 147 plate appearances -- his lowest total since 2013.

Harrison hit a lopsided .182/.308/.455 in 10 spring games.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison grabbed just four hits in 22 at-bats, but two of those hits were home runs. He's in a tight battle with fellow veteran infielders Neil Walker and Logan Forsythe for what appears to be two bench spots, though he'll probably need an injury or two ahead of him to open up a fantasy-relevant role.

Harrison agreed to a minor-league contract with the Phillies on Tuesday which includes an invitation to spring training, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison will join former Pirates teammate Andrew McCutchen if he's able to make the Phillies' roster. The infielder has struggled in two straight injury-filled campaigns, hitting a combined .229/.272/.335, so he'll need to show considerable improvement if he's to win a bench spot.

Harrison (hamstring) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list and released by the Tigers on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Prior to landing on the shelf, Harrison logged a .176 average in 146 plate appearances. He is a replacement-level infielder at this point in his career, so while he could catch on with another team, it would likely be as a bench player.

Manager Ron Gardenhire stated that Harrison (hamstring) will see around 45 at-bats at Triple-A Toledo before being activated from the injured list, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison was given the green light to embark on a rehab stint Thursday, and the Tigers have since determined about how much time he'll spend in the minor leagues. He'll likely return to the big leagues in mid-to-late August if all goes according to plan. It's unclear as to what role Harrison will take on upon his activation, per McCosky.

Harrison (hamstring) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, Emily Waldon of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison has been sidelined since the end of May with a hamstring injury but is finally ready for game action. given the length of his absence, the veteran infielder will likely need to play in multiple rehab games with Toledo before being cleared to rejoin the Tigers. Prior to getting injury, Harrison was hitting just .176/.219/.265 with one home run and four steals.

Harrison (hamstring) has resumed running following a brief setback, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison underwent surgery in early June which was supposed to keep him out for 6-to-8 weeks. The setback seemingly pushes him beyond the back end of that range. He'll be evaluated in about a week, at which point the Tigers will determine if he's ready for a rehab assignment.

Harrison is experiencing tightness in his left hamstring, and it's unclear as to when he could begin a rehab assignment, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harrison was reportedly closing in on a rehab stint, but following this latest setback, the Tigers are unsure when the 32-year-old could see minor-league action. Skipper Ron Gardenhire mentioned that Harrison's hamstring discomfort could be due to the breaking up of scar tissue. Harrison will likely head for further evaluation to uncover the root of the issue.

Harrison (hamstring) could be activated from the injured list before the end of July, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

He is close to starting a rehab assignment, but will likely require more than a couple games to get back up to speed since he has been sidelined for almost two months. Once healthy, Harrison should occupy a semi-regular role in the Tigers' infield.
