Paredes was released by the Phillies on Thursday, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Paredes threw 6.1 scoreless spring innings, striking out 11 while walking just two, but it wasn't enough for him to break into the revamped Phillies bullpen. He'll look for work elsewhere but may have to settle for a minor-league deal.

Phillies' Edward Paredes: Joins Phillies on minor-league deal
Rotowire
Paredes signed a minor-league contract with the Phillies on Friday, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
Paredes had been with the Dodgers for the last two seasons, throwing 16 major-league innings. His career 4.50 ERA is unremarkable, with his 29.7 percent strikeout rate and 3.1 percent walk rate so far not being enough to overcome a very low 23.8 percent groundball rate. It will likely take an injury or two for him to claim a place in the Phillies' bullpen.

Rotowire
Paredes was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Paredes will take the roster spot of JT Chargois, who was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding roster move. The 31-year-old owns a impressive 1.17 ERA and 11.2 K/9 across 15.1 innings in the minors, though that also comes with an unsightly 7.0 BB/9. He'll likely work in middle innings during his time with the big club.

Paredes will head back to the minors after logging just one appearance for the big-league squad, albeit a scoreless one. This move clears a roster spot for Walker Buehler, Friday's scheduled starter.

Rotowire
Paredes was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
Paredes had a rocky spring training, as he gave up five runs on eight hits and four walks over just 4.1 innings. He'll look to improve with Oklahoma City, where he posted a 21:6 K:BB and allowed just one run over 11 games (12 innings) in 2017.

Dodgers' Edward Paredes: Struggling early on this spring
Rotowire
Paredes gave up two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning Sunday.
Paredes has given up five runs over 4.1 spring innings. Despite the poor results, he has struck out a whopping 10 batters in that span. The 31-year-old was already on the fringe of making the 25-man roster, and his poor returns all but assure a return to Triple-A Oklahoma with Scott Alexander and Tony Cingrani serving as the Dodgers' left-handed relievers to start the year.

Rotowire
Paredes was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Andy McCullough of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Paredes will take the place of Yu Darvish (back) on the roster, and he should offer an extra arm out of the bullpen for the Dodgers until they need to swap him out for Darvish's temporary replacement in the rotation. He'll get another shot with the big club after posting a 0.75 ERA and 21:6 K:BB over 12 innings with Oklahoma City.

Dodgers' Edward Paredes: Sent back to OKC
Rotowire
Paredes was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.
The 30-year-old left-hander did everything the Dodgers asked him to do during his brief cup of coffee with LA, as he made two scoreless appearances and struck out one hitter. Nonetheless, with southpaw Tony Watson arriving via trade, there simply wasn't room on the active roster for the journeyman. Paredes will head back to the minors to act as an organizational piece, but he'll likely be back when rosters expand in September given his strong Dodgers debut.
