REPORT: Phillies trade for Tigers reliever Gregory Soto, Nick Maton & Matt Vierling to Detroit

Apparently, Phillies team president Dave Dombrowski wasn’t done this off-season.

After adding Trea Turner, Taijuan Walker, Matt Strahm and Craig Kimbrel through free agency, Dombrowski swings his first major trade of the winter, acquiring Tigers fire-balling left-handed reliever Gregory Soto and utility infielder Kody Clemens for outfielder Matt Vierling, utility infielder Nick Maton and AAA catcher Donny Sands.

The possibility of a deal was first floated by recently-retired NBC Sports Philadelphia’s Jim Salisbury and MLB Networks’ Jon Morosi.
