Phillies - Signed King, Swann, Rushford
Philadelphia Phillies - Signed 3B Brennan King, OF Pedro Swann and 1B Jim Rushford to minor-league contracts.
All 3 of these players were in the Phillies organization last year and are being re-signed as minor league free agents. King is the most interesting, but his BA is probably too low and his secondary skills not enough to ever get him more than a cup of coffee. Rushford and Swann would both have been terrific role players 4 or 5 years ago, but both their skills have declined in their mid-30s and they’re just filling some organizational holes on their way to coaching jobs.

The persistent Swann is one of a handful of Delawareans to play fifteen seasons of professional baseball.
