Delmon Young

The Phillies have designated Delmon Young for assignment and replaced him on the roster with Casper Wells off waivers from the White Sox. Young missed the first month of the season due to injury and then batted just .261 with eight homers over 80 games for the Phillies, he was shaky in right field and the Phillies felt that it was time to give Darin Ruf an opportunity to play that position everyda

Domonic Brown will begin a rehab assignment Monday at Low-A Lakewood.  Brown has been sidelined since July 23, when he suffered a concussion while diving for a ball. Brown has been symptom-free for four days and passed an ImPACT concussion test on Wednesday, so he's slowly ramping up baseball activities...

According to a tweet from CBS baseball writer Danny Knobler, the Phillies were very close to pull the plug on the Delmon Young experience and calling up Darin Ruf. However, seven hits the last three games have bought Young a little time...

Phillies (31-33) at Minnesota Twins (27-33) It took about 30 hours for the Phillies momentum – a five-game win streak, their most in a row since last September – to fizzle. Does their three-game slide stop so quickly? The only reason the Phillies are still within two games of ...

Diamondbacks 2, Phillies 1 Diamondbacks (20-15), Phillies (16-20) Allowing 11 baserunners through six innings is playing with fire. But Cole Hamels surrendered only two runs, as he has in all but one of his last six starts, and that should be good enough to win – unless you’re an ace on the Phillies...

So this is their ceiling. What the Phillies showcased in a 6-2 win over the World Champion San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park tonight was far and away their best stuff of the season. They hit for power. They fielded (mostly) well. Ab...

PHILADELPHIA—If there’s to be an unofficial home run duel, bring it. Ryan Howard and Domonic Brown say they’re game. “That’s all good with me,” Howard said after the Phillies 4-1 win over the Miami Marlins at Citizens Bank Park Friday night...

PHILADELPHIA—Delmon Young wasn’t intimidated. But if his debut in right field for the Phillies just so happened to be a quiet one, he’d be OK with that. “I think new place, playing different positions out there, you always want the first one to you to be kind of easy,” he said after his team’s 7-2 win over the Miami Marlins at Citizens Bank Park tonight...

Cleveland Indians 14, Phillies 2 Indians (11-13), Phillies (12-15) WP: McAllister (2-3, 3.30 ERA) LP: Halladay (2-3, 6.57 ERA) So much for progress. Despite a three-game win streak, run of three quality starts for Roy Halladay, the addition of Delmon Young and the luxury of the designated hitter, the Phillies crumbled in a 14-2 loss to the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field tonight, pushing th

PHILADELPHIA—It wasn’t just one botched ball. Delmon Young, making his first minor league rehab assignment start yesterday in Class-A Clearwater, booted one in the seventh inning to let a runner take an extra bag. But more troubling, maybe, was that the 27-year-old right fielding hopeful poorly misplayed the first ball put in play, an eventual triple for the Lakeland Flying Tigers that scouts ther
