The Philadelphia Phillies are getting part of the 2015 Washington Nationals back together.

Tuesday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reported that the Phillies have inked veteran reliever Drew Storen to a minor-league deal that will include an invite to major league Spring Training. Nightengale says that if Storen makes the Phillies roster, he’ll earn $750,000.
