Yuniesky Betancourt - 2B - Philadelphia Phillies
Jan. 28, 2013 - 12:30 PM ET
Phillies signed INF Yuniesky Betancourt to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.
Betancourt posted a .228 batting average and .256 on-base percentage in 228 plate appearances last season for the Royals. He's not a good defender and seems doubtful to contribute in a significant way for Philly. The 30-year-old owns a .266/.290/.392 career batting line.
