Phillies Acquire Justin Bour
6 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies are acquiring first baseman Justin Bour and cash from the Miami Marlins on Friday in exchange for a minor league pitcher, according to sources. Bour was hitting only .227 for the Fish, but he does have 19 home runs and 54 RBI on the season. A move to the first-place Phillies may hurt his value, as the Phils already have Carlos Santana as their regular first baseman. Bour may now only be useful in NL-only leagues against right-handed pitchers off the bench.
