The heart and soul of the Phillies 2019 second-half bullpen is looking for a new job.
The Houston Astros announced Thursday that they have released pitcher Jared Hughes. Hughes requested his release, as his minor-league contract gave him an option to opt-out in the event the Astros did not to place him on their 40-man roster.
Hughes did not have a stellar spring. In five and two-thirds innings, the 34-year-old gave up four earned runs on five hits with four strikeouts and three walks.
