PHILADELPHIA– On the day that free agent IF Manny Machado visited Citizens Bank Park, the Phillies made a much less notable signing.
The team has signed OF Shane Peterson to a minor league deal.
Peterson, 34, will have a chance to make the team’s roster out of Spring Training.
His last Major League action came in 2018 with the Yankees, where he hit .143 with 1 HR and 2 RBI’s over 25 games.
For his career, Peterson is a .221 hitter over just under 850 plate appearances.
