Three-time Gold Glove Award finalist Freddy Galvis was known for his defense with the Philadelphia Phillies and is now with his third team since being traded.

Infielder Freddy Galvis signed with the Philadelphia Phillies in 2006 as an amateur free agent out of Venezuela.

After just 33 games at AAA Lehigh Valley in 2011, Galvis made his major league debut at the start of the 2012 season, progressively working his way to a primary starting role thanks in large part to his defense.
