Finally, a Signing

The Phillies finally made some news this off-season, signing utility guy Josh Harrison to a minor-league deal with an invitation to spring training.

Harrison was a 2-time All-Star as a member of the Pirates and plays second base, third base, and the corner outfield spots. He can also play shortstop in a pinch. He was injured for most of last season and if they're looking for a bat off the bench, Harrison isn't the guy. His career pinch-hitting numbers are craptacular-19 hits in 114 at-bats.  He'll probably be the 26th guy on the roster.

Still no news on the starting pitching front, though. Maybe things will pick up after the holiday weekend.
