Phils sign Taguchi to one-year deal
Outfielder gets $1 million contract, with option for 2009
PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies completed some last-minute holiday shopping
Sunday, signing outfielder So Taguchi to a one-year contract with an option
for 2009.
The team announced the deal late Sunday afternoon. The agreement is believed
to be valued at slightly more than $1 million for 2008.
Taguchi, 37, spent the past six seasons with the St. Louis Cardinals, batting
.290 in 130 games with 15 doubles, three homers and seven stolen bases.
The right-handed-hitting Taguchi has averaged 340 at-bats from 2005-07. He is
a .284 hitter in 120 career pinch-hit appearances.
Taguchi's greatest value to manager Charlie Manuel is his ability to play all
three outfield positions, and be a longer-term solution in center field
should Shane Victorino suffer an injury such as the strained right calf that
cost him most of the final two months of 2007.
Assuming the Phillies go with 12 pitchers, Taguchi completes a five-man bench
that also consists of Jayson Werth, catcher Chris Coste, Eric Bruntlett and
whoever doesn't start at third between Greg Dobbs and Wes Helms.
Taguchi is the third player to sign with the Phillies in the previous four
days. Outfielder Geoff Jenkins and pitcher Chad Durbin agreed to contracts on
Thursday. General manager Pat Gillick said it was "unlikely" the team would
acquire another starting pitcher or third baseman before Spring Training, but
hoped to net a reliever, preferably a lefty.
