The Phillies threw us a curveball on Tuesday afternoon, finalizing their list of 12 non-roster invitees and adding 19 more players as what they're calling mini-camp invitees. A byproduct of our pandemic era is that the club needs to limit the number of players in camp, so we get this new wrinkle for who we'll see in Clearwater beginning tomorrow. If you're keeping score at home, there's 40 players on the big league roster, 12 non-roster invitees and 19 mini-camp invitees, for a total of 71 players suiting up. That's the same number of players the Phillies started with in Clearwater last February. The mini campers will train with the big club but report to the minor league clubhouse.
New additions to non-roster invitee list since my last update are outfielder Travis Jankowski along with catchers Rodolfo Duran and Jeff Mathis. Jankowski is a six-year big league veteran and he appeared in 16 games last year with the Reds. He's a career .238 hitter and can play all three outfield positions. Mathis is a 16-year veteran having spent the last two seasons with the Rangers. A back-up for much of his career, Mathis has played with the Angels (2005-2011), Blue Jays (2012), Marlins (2013-2016), Diamondbacks (2017-2018) and Rangers (2019-2020).
Notable below is that David Paulino has been seemingly demoted from the non-roster invitee list to the mini-camp invitee list. Pitchers Enyel De Los Santos and JD Hammer, along with outfielder Odubel Herrera, all of whom haven't played with the Phillies since 2019, are also on the mini-camp invitee list. Play ball!
