He returned to the Big Leagues for the first time since 2003 while with Philadelphia in 2006 - and went 2-2 with a 3.14 ERA in 21 relief outings.

He also made a pair of postseason appearances last year, highlighted by a scoreless relief outing against the Dodgers in Game 3 of the NLCS.

In 180 career ML games during parts of six seasons, Condrey has amassed an 18-12 mark with a 4.18 ERA (245.1 ip, 276 h, 121 r, 114 er, 87 bb, 140 k).
