Before the team's bullpen’s deficiencies were on full display on Opening Day, the Phillies had already come to terms with a veteran reliever.

A source close to the situation confirmed that the Phillies and veteran, journeyman reliever Rudy Seanez have agreed to terms on a contract. Seanez will be activated before Wednesday's game, the source said.

Seanez was cut loose by the Dodgers last week. The well-traveled right-hander has played for seven teams in the last seven years; the Phillies are his ninth team since making his major league debut in 1989.

The 39-year-old Seanez was 6-3 with a 3.79 ERA in 73 games with the Dodgers last year.
