Phillies outright 6 players, all elect free agency

Just a few hours after claiming Ryan Sherriff off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays, the Philadelphia Phillies made their most significant moves of the day by outrighting relievers JD Hammer and Ramón Rosso, infielder Ronald Torreyes, catcher Andrew Knapp and outfielders Odúbel Herrera and Travis Jankowski. All six subsequently elected to become free agents.

Perhaps the most notable news is that of Herrera, who had been in the organization since 2015 and whose Phillies tenure will always be marred by his suspension for domestic violence that caused him to miss much of the 2019 season.
