Phillies place Aaron Harang on DL with plantar fasciitis, activate Chad Billingsley

Bill Streicher / USA TODAY Sports

The Philadelphia Phillies have placed right-hander Aaron Harang on the 15-day disabled list with left foot plantar fasciitis.

Harang dropped his eighth-straight decision Wednesday, allowing eight runs and a career-high 14 hits to the Milwaukee Brewers. His record fell to 4-11 with the loss, and his ERA now stands at a season-high 4.08.

The timing of the injury isn't ideal for the Phillies, who are expected to trade multiple veteran players ahead of the July 31 deadline.

Righty Chad Billingsley was activated to take Harang's roster spot.
