2020 Chachi #50

Ronald Torreyes had his contract selected on September 11th, replacing Neil Walker on the active roster as Walker was designated for assignment.  Torreyes, who has played previously with manager Joe Girardi when both were with the Yankees, provides more versatility in the field than Walker could.

As a non-roster invitee, Torreyes had worn #74 during spring training and I had assumed he would take a lower number once he joined the Phillies.  I assumed incorrectly, and he becomes the second player in franchise history to wear #74, following in the footsteps of Ugueth Urbina who first wore the number in 2005.
