  1. Rubén Tejada was a former utility player for the Mets in the 2010s followed by a journeyman type career after 2015. Was in Phillies system in 2021 in AAA so he got slight connections to the organization.

  2. Hopefully he learned his lesson about keeping his back to the runner while trying to turn a double play.

  3. Oh wow that’s awesome. Sorry our future HoF 2nd basement derailed your career with his sick slide. Want a job??

  4. I like when we hire guys who were previously involved in our system. It’s a small step toward building an actual self sustain farm system that we’ve lacked for 20 years now.

  5. takes a lot of character to have a role with the organization who is most associated with Utley.
