DeWayne Wise opts out of contract with the Philadelphia Phillies
32-year old lefty swinging outfielder DeWayne Wise has opted out of his contract with the Phillies thus becoming a free agent. Wise played in 36 games in AAA-ball for the Phillies this year and he was 37 of 136 (.272 avg, .832 OPS) with 17 runs scored, 4 homers, 13 RBIs and 2 stolen bases. Wise has played in 324 games in his major league career and he is 132 of 610 (.216 avg, .636 OPS) with 82 runs scored, 17 homers, 61 RBIs and 25 stolen bases. Wise will likely hook on with another team but the Phillies won’t lose any sleep over watching him walk away.
