The Phillies optioned Stevenson to their spring training complex Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports. With Triple-A Lehigh Valley's season over, Stevenson will report to the team's spring training facility, where he'll work out in case he's needed later on. The transaction frees a spot on the roster for the return of Austin Hays (kidney) from the injured list.

Stevenson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers. Stevenson had started in each of the Phillies' last three matchups with right-handed pitchers and went 2-for-6 with a double, a walk and two RBI. Though he'll take a seat Wednesday against righty Freddy Peralta, the lefty-hitting Stevenson appears to be making a push to take over the strong side of a platoon in center field with Johan Rojas.

The Phillies recalled Stevenson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday. With Austin Hays set to miss at least the next week due to a kidney infection, Stevenson will return to Philadelphia to make up for the lost depth in the Phillies' outfield unit. The 27-year-old has slashed .300/.420/.483 with eight homers and 43 RBI across 393 plate appearances in Triple-A but will likely be limited to a bench role while in the majors.

The Phillies optioned Stevenson to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports. Stevenson was with the big club for a couple weeks while Austin Hays (hamstring) was sidelined. Hays is now back, so Stevenson is being sent down to make room for him.

The Phillies selected Stevenson's contract from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday. The 27-year-old was claimed off waivers from the Giants in late May but was designated for assignment before receiving a look in the big leagues. Stevenson has spent the past two months at Lehigh Valley, where he has a .304/.419/.484 slash line with seven homers and 27 steals in 90 games. He'll provide outfield depth as Austin Hays (hamstring) heads to the injured list.
