Hunter Pence Traded to Philly from Houston for Prospects

Posted  by Danielle Wilson    

It's official, Hunter Pence is a Philadelphia Phillie. He was pulled from tonight's game in houston, and was seen in the dugout hugging teammates, tears in his eyes, as he took in the moment of playing for Houston for the last time.

Pence was traded for Class-A minor league prospects Jarred Cosart (P) whose stats can be found on that link from prior to the Futures Game, and first baseman Jonathan Singleton. Singleton has posted eyebrow-raising numbers this season with the Threshers. Josh Zeid, a pitcher with the Class-AA Reading Phillies is also part of the deal.

The final player to be named later will, well, be named later. Stay tuned, word is that the list of players are from low-class A.
