Brandon Phillips, Red Sox Reportedly Agree to Minor League Contract

The Boston Red Sox added some depth to their infield group Wednesday when they signed second baseman Brandon Phillips to a new deal.

Per The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal, Phillips received a minor league contract with the Red Sox.

Phillips played for the Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Angels in 2017 after the Cincinnati Reds traded him. Cincinnati dealt him to Atlanta, and the Braves proceeded to send him to Los Angeles in August.

In all, he slashed .285/.319/.416 with 13 home runs and 60 RBI in 144 total games in 2017.
