Nesseth and Rosin Added to Non-Roster Invitees

2014 Grandstand Reading Fightin Phils #24
2014 Choice Lehigh Valley IronPigs #20
I thought I had posted the list of 2015 spring training non-roster invitees for the final time, but then earlier this afternoon the Phillies announced two more additions to the list.  Right-handed pitchers Mike Nesseth and Seth Rosin were both added, bringing the headcount in camp to an even 60.

Rosin made the news last year when made the opening day rosters of both the Dodgers and the Rangers before making his way back to the Phillies.  It was the first time in history a player made two opening day rosters.

Nesseth split last season between the Double-A Fightin Phils and the Triple-A IronPigs.
