The Angels take Bobby Mosebach back
Bobby Mosebach, a hard-throwing right-hander in camp all spring competing for a bullpen spot, is no longer with the Phillies.
The Phils selected Mosebach in the Rule 5 Draft at Major League Baseball's winter meetings in December. Per Rule 5 restrictions, a player selected in that draft must stay on the major league roster of the team that drafted him for the duration of the season.
After determining he wouldn't make the cut for the 25-man roster, the Phils placed Mosebach on waivers. After he cleared, they had to offer him back to the Angels for $25,000.
The Angels took him back. The Phils, who liked Mosebach's arm and would have liked to develop him in the minor leagues, tried to make a trade with the Angels, but were unsuccessful.
Mosebach had a 9.39 ERA in seven games this spring.
