The White Sox have outrighted lefty Zach Phillips, Dan Hayes of CSN Chicago was among those to report (via Twitter). Phillips rejected an assignment to Triple-A and elected free agency.
Chicago had added the 29-year-old southpaw to its 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. He spent last year at Triple-A for the organization after coming back over from Japan, working to a 3.13 ERA over 5 2/3 innings with 10.5 K/9 against 3.3 BB/9. Phillips has made 19 total big league appearances over parts of three seasons, but hasn’t cracked the majors since 2013.
Wish my Sox would pick this guy up. Superstar pitcher one day. He’s going to be a great setup guy for Kimbrel.
This is gold lol
I see what you did there
“Elects free agency”…I’m jealous…I get to elect Trump or Clinton…I feel like I’m trapped in an episode of Celebrity Death Match.
