The Phillies transferred Covey (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Saturday.
Covey has been on the IL since the beginning of the season due to a right shoulder strain, so his move to the 60-day IL has no effect on his return date. The transaction does, however, open a spot on Philadelphia's 40-man roster for right-hander Freddy Tarnok, whom Philadelphia claimed off waivers from Oakland on Saturday.
