By Allan

MLB.com’s Todd Zolecki says via Twitter that the Philadelphia Phillies released left-handed pitcher Nate Robertson and claimed right-handed pitcher Cesar Carrillo off waivers.

The Phillies signed Robertson to a Minor League contract at the end of August. Robertson, 32, was 6-7 with a 5.10 ERA in 18 appearances (17 starts) for the Marlins this season before he was released last month. He was acquired by the Marlins in a trade with the Detroit Tigers last spring.

Carrillo, 26, was with the San Diego Padres organization in 2009 and 1-2 in 3 career games with a 13.06 ERA (15 earned runs in 10.1 innings pitched).
