The Philadelphia Phillies have placed Bryce Harper on the injured list with a bruised left forearm.

The move was made retroactive to Sunday.

Harper, who is in an 0-for-16 slump, was held out of the Phillies' lineup for the past two games.

The outfielder leads the team with a .489 slugging percentage, including 15 extra-base hits and seven home runs, but the slump has dropped his OPS to .884.
