PHILADELPHIA—The
Philadelphia Phillies have acquired veteran slugger Jose Bautista from
the New York Mets for a player to be named later or cash.
Bautista batted .196 with 11 homers and 42 RBIs for the Braves
and Mets this season. The Phillies entered Tuesday night’s game against
Washington three and a half games behind Atlanta in the NL East.
A six-time All-Star for Toronto between 2010-2015, Bautista has 342
career homers. The right-handed hitter is expected to come off the bench
for the Phillies.
