He made his MLB debut with Chicago in 2013 and played just two seasons with the Pale Hose before moving to the Athletics, where he spent the next five seasons of his career. Phegley played last season with the Cubs, getting just one hit (a home run) in 16 at-bats. He'll finish his career with a .225/.268/.381 slash line, 35 home runs and 162 RBI in 387 games played over eight big-league seasons.
