Didi Gregorius Released by Phillies After 2-Plus Seasons with Team; Was Hitting .210

As the Philadelphia Phillies continue to fight for a playoff spot, they will do so without Didi Gregorius.

The Phillies announced Thursday that Gregorius has been released after two-plus seasons with the team.

Gregorius hit .181/.234/.284 in 167 PA since being activated from IL on June 5. He singled in 5th inning yesterday for his 999th career hit, and I wonder if he still batted later in the game against a lefty to go for 1,000. Phillies eat about $5 million here.

Gregorius was hitting .210/.263/.304 with one homer and 19 RBI in 63 games.
