Horst was released by the Dodgers on Wednesday, Eric Stephen of True Blue LA reports.

Horst pitched well with Double-A Tulsa this season, posting a 1.64 ERA and 1.52 WHIP with 42 strikeouts over 38.1 innings. He did struggle with his command, however, allowing 20 walks over the same amount of frames. He's now a free agent, and will be free to look for work elsewhere.

Horst signed a minor league deal with the Dodgers on Tuesday, SB Nation's Eric Stephen reports.

The deal does not include a non-roster invitation to spring training, but with fellow minor league pitcher Robert Carson having his invitation rescinded after getting suspended for a positive drug test, perhaps Horst could take his place. Either way, Horst is a 29-year-old journeyman reliever who spent all of last season at Triple-A with the Phillies, so he is unlikely to be of much use in fantasy leagues anytime soon.

Horst has filed for free agency.

Horst did not see any time in the majors last season. He was 4-2 with a 3.98 ERA and a 57:31 K:BB ratio in 63.1 innings at Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season.

Phillies sent LHP Jeremy Horst outright to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Horst was designated for assignment by the Phillies on Sunday morning. He passed through waivers and has accepted his outright assignment to the Triple-A level.

Phillies designated LHP Jeremy Horst for assignment.

The move was made in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for Cesar Jimenez. Horst has been at Triple-A Lehigh Valley all season, where he's posted a 4.35 ERA while walking 16 over 20 2/3 innings.

Phillies optioned LHP Jeremy Horst, C Tommy Joseph, and OFs Tyson Gillies and Zach Collier to Triple-A Lehigh Valley; reassigned LHP Cesar Jimenez, RHP Ken Giles and INF Andres Blanco to minor league camp.

Horst had a legit shot to break camp had he pitched well, but he didn't (9.64 ERA) and the Phillies look to be going with Jake Diekman as their second left-hander. None of the other cuts had a real chance to make the team.

Jeremy Horst (elbow) could begin a throwing program soon.

Horst has been out since mid-June with an elbow injury. If he returns, it will be well into September. The Phillies are likely just hoping he'll be OK for spring training.

Phillies transferred RHP Jeremy Horst from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.

The move clears a spot for Steve Susdorf on the 40-man roster. Horst recently received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his throwing elbow and is at risk for missing the rest of the season.

Jeremy Horst (elbow) suffered a setback during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley and will likely be shut down for the season.

Horst is dealing with renewed soreness in his left (pitching) elbow and is scheduled to visit with Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion. He received a platelet-rich plasma injection on Friday and will not throw for at least six weeks.

Jeremy Horst (elbow) will make another rehab appearance on Monday with Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Horst threw a scoreless inning in his rehab debut on Saturday. The right-hander has been on the disabled list since June 17 with a left elbow strain. He should be back in the Phillies' bullpen by the middle of this week.

Jeremy Horst (elbow) will resume throwing on Wednesday.

Horst has been on the DL for just over a week with a left elbow strain, but he's evidently feeling much better. It appears he has a shot to return before the All-Star break.

Phillies placed LHP Jeremy Horst on the 15-day disabled list with a left elbow strain.

Horst was excellent for the Phillies in 2012 but has struggled to the tune of a 6.23 ERA here in 2013. He's going to have his elbow checked out by a specialist.

Jeremy Horst has not carried over his success from 2012, posting a 5.09 ERA and 1.58 WHIP over 17 2/3 innings.

Luckily for him, Philly's bullpen depth is poor. A lack of attractive alternative options will only save Horst's job for so long, however, if he keeps getting lit up at this rate. Horst posted a 1.74 ERA over 44 games in limited time the last two seasons, which is probably why the Phillies have given him as much rope as they have.

Phillies placed LHP Jeremy Horst on the paternity leave list.

Horst can remain on the paternity leave list for 24 to 72 hours. The Phillies called up prospect right-hander Phillippe Aumont from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding roster move.

Phillies purchased the contract of LHP Jeremy Horst from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

The hope is that Horst will help stabilize a bullpen that has been mostly wretched through the first three months of the 2012 season. The 26-year-old left-hander was rocking a 2.11 ERA in 38 1/3 innings at Triple-A.

Phillies reassigned LHPs Jeremy Horst and David Purcey to minor league camp.

Horst was acquired this winter in a trade with the Reds. The 26-year-old posted a promising 2.81 ERA in 51-plus innings last year at the Triple-A level and should see action in the major leagues later this season.

Phillies acquired LHP Jeremy Horst from the Reds for INF Wilson Valdez.

Horst registered a promising 2.81 ERA and 42/14 K/BB ratio in 51 1/3 innings last season at the Triple-A level, and was also effective during multiple stints in the major leagues. He could be a useful left-handed reliever in 2012 for the Phillies.

Reds re-signed LHP Jeremy Horst to a minor league contract.

Horst gets a spring training invite after being outrighted off the Reds' 40-man roster last month. The 26-year-old southpaw had a 2.13 ERA over 12 appearances with the big club last season and a 2.81 ERA and 42/14 K/BB ratio over 51 1/3 innings with Triple-A Columbus. He'll likely begin 2012 in the minors.

Reds sent LHP Jeremy Horst outright to Triple-A Louisville.

Horst posted a solid 2.81 ERA and 42/14 K/BB ratio over 51 1/3 innings this year at the Triple-A level. But he's now off the Reds' 40-man roster and will have to work his way back next season.

Reds recalled LHP Jeremy Horst from Triple-A Louisville.

Horst has made six appearances with the Reds this season, but has spent the majority of the year at the minor league level, posting a 2.81 ERA and 42/14 K/BB ratio over 51 1/3 innings. He'll join a Reds' bullpen that is suddenly very, very crowded.
