Danys Baez possibly signing with the Phillies soon
by Scott Butler 12/23/09
It looks like the Phillies might be close to a deal with right-handed reliever Danys Baez. CSNPhilly.com reported that the Phils had reached a deal with a right-handed reliever, but it is unsure who that pitcher is. Phillies.com believes Danys Baez is that reliever. Baez was 4-6 with the Baltimore Orioles last season with a 4.02 ERA in 59 appearances with the O's last season.
Chan Ho Park is unlikely to return to the Phillies. No official word has been given, but Ruben Amaro has said he does not expect Park to return. That's official enough to me. The Phillies were in talks with Chan Ho, but they have not gotten anywhere in the negotiations. It also does not appear likely that John Smoltz is an option, as the Phillies are worried about his durability.
