Phillies released OF Odúbel Herrera.
It's surprising Herrera lasted as long as he did in Philadelphia, especially this season. The 30-year-old outfielder holds a pedestrian career .271/.326/.419 triple-slash line with 78 homers and 68 steals in 817 games since 2015.
Phillies designated OF Odúbel Herrera for assignment.
This will allow the Phillies to complete their trade for outfielder Brandon Marsh from the Angels. Herrera, 30, was slashing just .238/.279/.378 through 62 games (197 plate appearances) this season.
Odúbel Herrera went 0-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts Friday against the Pirates.
He was also chewed out for his lack of hustle during the game. There isn't a whole lot out there for center field options right now, but the Phillies sure could use an upgrade there for the final two months.
Odúbel Herrera is starting in center field and batting nith for the Phillies in Saturday's contest against the Cubs.
It's the first start for the 30-year-old outfielder since July 12. In 58 games on the season, Herrera is hitting .243/.283/.393 with five homers, 19 RBI and four stolen bases in 184 plate appearances.
