2025 Philadelphia Phillies Photocards
The Phillies broke camp in March with eight relievers on their roster.  Jose Ruiz, along with Jose Alvarado, Carlos Hernandez, Jordan Romano and Joe Ross, was one of five of those relievers to be ineffective, suspended and/or no longer with the organization by the end of the season.  Ruiz pitched in 16 games for the Phillies, with a record of 1-0 and an 8.16 ERA in 14 1/3 innings pitched.  He was designated for assignment on June 1st and subsequently claimed off waivers by the Braves.  After two outings with the Braves, Ruiz was dealt to the Rangers on July 18th.  He'd not appear in any games with the Rangers and as of this writing, in late December, he's a free agent.
