Philadelphia, PA. The Philadelphia Phillies have activated Bryce Harper from the 10-day injured list. The player overcame inflammation in his right wrist, which prevented him from playing. As a result, the team designated infielder Buddy Kennedy for assignment. Harper’s return comes after a week of preparation that included batting sessions, practices, and matchups with minor league pitchers.
Manager Rob Thomson expressed his satisfaction with the player’s development. Harper, a two-time National League MVP, is key to the Phillies maintaining their position in the East Division.“It was great. It seemed like he had bat speed and the timing looked good.”
