Final Look at 2013-2014 Phillies Transactions

2014 Chachi Almost #6
For some odd reason, I wanted to take a look back one more time at the moves made between the end of 2013 season and through the end of the 2014 season.  Read it and weep.

One of the players not appearing on this list is pitcher Jason Marquis, who probably would have joined the club in mid-August if not for the impressive performance from Jerome Williams.  The former All-Star signed with the Phillies in early June.  With the IronPigs, Marquis went 3-1 with a 4.63 ERA in eight starts.  Having not made the big club by the end of August, he requested and was granted his release.
