Former Phillies pitcher Sean O’Sullivan will be pitching in South Korea this upcoming season after being unable to find a home in the Major Leagues. He will join the Korea Baseball Organization’s Nexen Heroes on a one-year contract worth $1.1 million.

Prior to joining the Phillies, O’Sullivan pitched for the Angels, Padres, and Royals.

O’Sullivan was originally signed by the Phillies as a free agent prior to the 2014 season, and made multiple spot-starts around injuries.
