According to RADIO.COM’s Jon Heyman, the Philadelphia Phillies have offered the vacant scouting director position to New York Yankees’ national crosschecker Brian Barber. The team’s interest in Barber was first reported by NBC Sports Philadelphia’s Jim Salisbury Saturday morning.
Earlier this week, Salisbury reported that the Phillies had been interviewing several candidates, both from inside and outside the organization, but it appears they have decided on Barber as their top choice.
