Former Phillies outfielder Jake Cave is signing with the KBO’s Doosan Bears, the team announced on Tuesday.
Cave, 31, will head to South Korea for a year after spending last season with the Colorado Rockies. He competed for a bench spot with the Phillies in spring training a year ago, but lost out to Cristian Pache and was traded to the Rockies for cash considerations. Pache was later traded to the Orioles as part of the Austin Hays for Seranthony Domínguez swap in July. Pache was DFA’d days later and picked up by the Marlins. He is currently a free agent.
