The Philadelphia Phillies have reinstated left-hander Jose Alvarado from the restricted list after he completed an 80-game PED suspension, prompting the optioning of Nolan Hoffman to Triple-A and the designation of Josh Walker for assignment. Alvarado returns to a strengthened bullpen, having posted a 2.70 ERA with a 29.8% strikeout rate before his suspension, although he will be ineligible for postseason play due to his PED suspension.
