The Phillies have signed infielder Christian Arroyo to a minor-league contract, according to Tim Dierkes of MLB Trade Rumors. He’ll get a non-roster invite to spring training.
Arroyo hasn’t lived up to his billing as a once-top-100 prospect, but he’s been serviceable at times. After being traded from San Francisco, he bounced around the Tampa Bay, Cleveland, Boston and Milwaukee organizations, his best years coming with the Red Sox in 2021 and 2022. He hit .277 with a .749 OPS and accumulated 2.2 bWAR across 144 games those seasons.
Arroyo struggled in 2023 with the Red Sox, then again last year with the Brewers’ Triple-A affiliate.
