As spring training drew to a close earlier this year, it was clear the Phillies were intent on keeping first baseman/outfielder Brock Stassi on the 25-man roster, which meant someone would have to be removed from the 40-man roster to make room.
Remember when we were all wringing our hands over this? Remember when this was a big story? Yeah, well, with virtually no positional battles going on as things wrapped up in Clearwater back in March, this is what we were left with.
At the time, I was not high on Luis Garcia or Adam Morgan being a part of the 2017 Phils.
