Phillies Roster Moves

Hi everybody,

The Philles have made several roster moves earlier today.  The following players were not tendered contracts and are now free-agents:

-- Maikel Franco (3rd Baseman)
-- Cesar Hernandez (2nd Baseman)

The following arbitration-eligible players were tendered contacts (contract length and cost will be determined later) and will return to the team next season:

-- Jose Alvarez (Left Handed Relief Pitcher)
-- Adam Morgan (Left Handed Relief Pitcher)
-- Zach Eflin (Right Handed Starting Pitcher)
-- Hector Neris (Right Handed Relief Pitcher)
-- Vince Velasquez (Right Handed Pitcher)
-- J.T. Realmuto (Starting Catcher)

Backup catcher Andrew Knapp signed a one-year contact and avoided arbitration.

Right handed pitcher Trevor Kelley was claimed off of waivers from the Boston Red Sox.

Franco and Hernandez were two of the longest tenured Phillies and I wish them luck both next season and beyond.

A Toast To My Hero Chase Utley

Hi everybody,

The Los Angeles Dodgers lost the World Series to the Boston Red Sox four games to one last night (October 28th) so the playing career of former Phillie (and my hero) Chase Utley has come to an end.  I just wanted to tip my cap and raise a glass to Chase for an amazing career.  If it wasn't for Chase and Bleacher Creatures...I would have never started writing this blog, tweeting on Twitter or posting pictures on Instagram.  I am so happy that Chase can finally come home to the Phillies!  You will always be The Man, Chase!  Cheers!!!

Cheers to a great career, Chase!!!

Chase Utley is Going Back to the World Series Again

Hi everybody,

I just wanted to congratulate my hero (and Phillies Legend) Chase Utley for going back to the World Series again with the Los Angeles Dodgers.  The Dodgers won the National League Championship last night (October 20th) for the second straight year by beating the Milwaukee Brewers in seven games and will be facingthe American League Champion Boston Red Sox.  Although it is unlikely that Chase will be on the Dodgers World Series roster since he hasn't be on any of the Dodgers playoff rosters this season....I still hope Chase gets one last World Series ring.

Hi everybody,

The Phillies new starting catcher Wilson Ramos was reactivated from the DL (Disabled List) before Wednesday night's (August 15th) game against the Boston Red Sox.  Ramos has been on the DL with a hamstring strain since before he was acquired by the Phils in a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays on July 31st.

Alumni Weekend - Shane Victorino Retires as a Phillie

Hi everybody,

Former Phillies center fielder Shane Victorino retired as a Phillie before Friday's (August 3rd) game against the Miami Marlins.  Victorino played for the Phils from 2005-2012 (when he was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers).

Victorino (nicknamed the Flyin' Hawaiian) won three Gold Gloves and was a two-time NL All-Star as a member of the Phillies.  He also was part of five NL East Championship teams (2007-2011), two National League Championship teams (2008-2009) and the 2008 World Champions.  Victorino would later be a part of an American League Championship and World Series Championship with the Boston Red Sox in 2013.

Congrats on a great career, Shane!  I look forward to seeing you on the Phillies Wall of Fame someday.

Greeting the fans...

Thanking the Phillies and the fans...

Throwing out the first pitch with his son...

Thank you Shane....
