The Phillies made a small acquisition on Thursday with the signing of 32-year old left-handed pitcher Cesar Ramos to a minor-league deal. The move was first reported by Chris Cotillo of SB Nation. The news has yet to be confirmed by the team.
There is no word on if Ramos will join the team during spring training in the big-league camp, but it wouldn’t surprise me. He will likely try to vie for a bullpen role in the majors, but it is more likely he will pitch in Triple-A.
Ramos has spent parts of eight seasons in the major-leagues.
