Good move for the Phillies. James Rusell could be a great arm in the bullpen like he had done in the past with the cubs before he was traded to Atlanta. Nice.

Russell was one of th bat reliever in the Cubs young teams of a few years ago will be good for Philadelphia

Solid move for the Phillies. I’d imagine that he is one of those minor league contract signings essentially guaranteed a slot on the roster. I’m curious whether or not he has an opt out date. I believe he is an XX-d and they don’t clarify.

Didn’t he express an interest in starting? I swear he said something about it last season that he wanted to start. Maybe the Phillies could try stretching him out this spring or next.
