Before those posts though, I wanted to feature a quick post on the newest member of the club and a possible candidate for the team's fourth outfielder in 2015. On Friday, the team claimed outfielder Jordan Danks off waivers from the Chicago White Sox. Danks appeared in 51 games with the White Sox last season, hitting .222 with two home runs. He's on card #649 in the 2014 Topps set.
The press release announcing the Danks move indicated that the Phillies 40-man roster was now full, which surprised me since I had the tally at 39. Recently the Phillies added pitcher Joely Rodriguez to the roster meaning he's also earned a Chachi New Additions card. Rodriguez had been acquired from the Pirates back in December for Antonio Bastardo, but he didn't appear on the team website's 40-man roster until this past week.
