Phillies Reinstate Banks From Injured List, Option Holman to Triple-A

The Philadelphia Phillies reinstated left-hander Tanner Banks from the 60-day injured list before Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Braves. Banks, who had been sidelined by a left forearm strain since July 9, is 0-4 with a 7.14 ERA in 28 appearances this season and completed multiple minor-league rehab outings. To make room, Philadelphia optioned right-hander Grant Holman to Triple-A after his difficult major-league debut and designated infielder Christian Cairo for assignment. Cairo, 25, was batting .227/.378/.298 with four home runs and 35 RBIs at Triple-A Lehigh Valley, though he could clear waivers and remain organizational depth.
