The Philadelphia Phillies are among a couple of teams looking at the Chicago White Sox and trying to project which players will be available if the the White Sox don’t get back into the American League Central race over the next few weeks. One top Philadelphia scout was looking at the White Sox this week, concentrating on closer Bobby Jenks.
… The Phillies also are interested in reliever J.J. Putz, who had extensive experience as a setup man and closer and would fit nicely into the Phillies’ bullpen mix.
For prospects lists go here. Maybe someone like a J.C. Ramirez, Brody Colvin or Jarred Cossart?
BTW, Jenks and Putz pitched yesterday. Here is the pitch f/x report. Jenks hit 98, Putz 97.
