The good

The Phillies originally signed Parker as a free agent in August 2019, and the journeyman righthander pitched decently over the final two months of the season. After reaching free agency, the team brought him back on a minor league deal prior to the 2020 season.

Despite the team carrying about 15 relievers on their “Opening Day” roster in 2020 - and very few being good - Parker was somehow not one of them, instead getting assigned to the minor league squad.
