Phillies activated LHP Tanner Banks from the 60-day injured list.

The 34-year-old southpaw rejoins the Phillies’ bullpen after being shelved since early July due to a forearm strain. Before landing on the injured list, he had posted a miserable 7.14 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and a 32/13 K/BB ratio across 29 innings in 28 outings. Grant Holman was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move to clear a spot in the Phillies’ bullpen.
