Cal Stevenson Designated for assignment
Stevenson was designated for assignment by the Phillies on Thursday.
Analysis: Stevenson was claimed off waivers from the Giants last Friday, but his stay on the 40-man roster lasted less than a week. Drew Ellis had his contract selected from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move to give the Phillies an option at first base against left-handed pitching.
