2020 Chachi Departures #14 |

In a flurry of roster moves on late Monday afternoon, the Phillies parted with eight more players and they now have 35 spots taken on their 40-man roster.
The club declined their options on pitchers Jared Hughes, Pat Neshek and Jason Vargas. Starting pitcher Jake Arrieta, as expected, exercised his player option for 2020 and he'll attempt to bounce back from two lackluster seasons.

Pitchers Jerad Eickhoff, Mike Morin, Blake Parker and Edubray Ramos along with infiedler Phil Gosselin were all outrighted off the 40-man roster and all five elected free agency. The Morin and Parker moves surprised me a little, as I could see both playing a role in the team's 2020 bullpen. I assume one or both could come back on minor league deals. It's also tough to see Phillies Room favorite Gosselin let go.
Finally, pitchers Victor Arano, Arrieta, Seranthony Dominguez, Adam Morgan, David Robertson and Robert Stock along with outfielder Andrew McCutchen were activated from the 60-day IL.
This is a good time
to link over to my Virtual Phillies Wall, which has been updated to reflect the current status of the team's 40-man roster. As players are added, such as Stock, they'll appear on a 2020 Chachi New Additions insert card. The next date to circle on our calendars is December 2nd, when the Phillies will need to make a decision on tendering contracts to Cesar Hernandez and Maikel Franco in advance of the annual Rule 5 draft.
