There were high hopes for Cristian Pache when the Phillies acquired him one day into the 2023 season, as he had always been viewed as an exciting player with a high upside.  Injuries limited him to 48 games in 2023, and similar to Whit Merrifield, he never got things going in 2024.  Pache batted .202 in 50 games with the Phillies in 2024, connecting for five doubles and nine RBIs.  The highlight of his season came on April 16th when he singled home Bryson Stott in a walk-off win against the Rockies.  On July 26th, Pache and Seranthony Dominguez were dealt to the Orioles for outfielder Austin Hays.  In hindsight, it would have been nice to still have Dominguez.  Pache played in three games for the Orioles before being claimed off waivers by the Marlins on August 2nd.  He'd finish the season in Miami, appearing in 35 games and batting .183.  As of this writing, Pache has reportedly signed a minor league deal with the Diamondbacks.
