The Philadelphia Phillies sign Timo Perez
The Philadelphia Phillies have signed 35-year old lefty swinging outfielder Timo Perez to a minor league deal. Perez played in 41 games earlier this season in AAA for the Dodgers and he was 34 of 115 (.296 avg, .762 OPS) with 19 runs scored, 2 homers, 10 RBIs and 3 stolen bases. Perez has played in 603 games in his 8 years in the majors and he is 449 of 1,671 (.269 avg, .690 OPS) with 187 runs scored, 26 homers, 185 RBIs and 23 stolen bases. This was a solid signing for the Phillies as Perez might be able to help them off the bench in the near future.
