The Philadelphia Phillies DFA Wilson Valdez
The Phillies have designated 32-year old righty swinging infielder Wilson Valdez for assignment to make room for Jimmy Rollins who was activated off the D.L. Valdez played in 18 games for the Phillies this season and he was 12 of 52 (.231 avg, .596 OPS) with 6 runs scored and 5 RBIs. The Phillies hope that Valdez clears waivers so they can stash him in AAA if he accepts an assignment. Rollins has played in 9 games for the Phillies this year and he is 11 of 31 (.355 avg, 1.120 OPS) with 10 runs scored, 1 homer, 4 RBIs and 2 stolen bases. Look for the Phillies to have the offense in full throttle with Rollins back at the top of the lineup.
Rollins baby!!!
That didn’t last too long.
