Phillies Move, Cabrera’s Exit | MLB News

The Phillies just pulled off a roster shakeup, signing outfielder Bryan De La Cruz to a Major League deal and designating pitcher Jean Cabrera for assignment. De La Cruz, who was already on a minor league contract, now joins the 40-man roster and could see immediate MLB time as the team deals with outfield injuries. Meanwhile, Cabrera — once a top-13 prospect — is struggling with a high ERA and control issues, and the Phillies are likely to let him go on waivers, hoping another team will take a chance. The move also signals a bigger plan: the Phillies are actively targeting controllable bullpen arms, possibly trading higher-up prospects to build a stronger, future-ready bullpen.
