The Phillies added some outfield depth today, signing So Taguchi to a one-year deal for around $1MM with an option for ’09. There had been a rumor that the Cubs were eyeing Taguchi.
The Phillies’ outfield will consist of Pat Burrell, Shane Victorino, Geoff Jenkins, Jayson Werth, and Taguchi. They’ve also got Chris Snelling as an option if he can stay healthy.
