Liover Peguero - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Inks minors deal with Phillies The Phillies signed Peguero to a minor-league contract Tuesday, Aram Leighton of JustBaseball.com reports.

Impact Peguero never got settled in during his parts of four seasons with the Pirates, slashing just .227/.278/.368 over 315 plate appearances. He'll turn just 25 next month and can play all over the infield, so Peguero could be useful organizational depth for Philadelphia.

Impact Peguero tied the game at 1-1 in the fifth inning and added another RBI with a groundout in the eighth.

In the majors this year, he is batting .263 with a 1:5 BB:K across 21 plate appearances. He's made starts at first base, second base and shortstop over the last four games and appears to be a reserve utility infielder at this time.
