PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies are trying to reconstruct their bullpen and maybe find a right-handed bat to help replace Jayson Werth in right field, but in the meantime, they need to find players for their Minor League system.
They recently signed infielder Pete Orr, who hit .260 in five seasons in the big leagues with Atlanta and Washington, to a Minor League contract. He spent 2010 with Triple-A Syracuse, hitting .264 with 32 doubles, eight triples, 12 home runs and 45 RBIs in 489 at-bats.
In his career, Orr has played second base, third base, shortstop and all three outfield positions.
The Phillies also re-signed catcher Dane Sardinha, who hit .205 with three homers and eight RBIs in 13 games with Philadelphia. He hit .207 with five homers and 24 RBIs in 67 games with Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
