Phillies not interesd in Mike Cameron
By
The Philadelphia Phillies have an opening in right field due to Domonic Brown’s injury. Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald notes that the Phillies are not interested in Red Sox’s Mike Cameron.
Lauber says that Cameron is slated to come off the bench for the team, but they haven’t offered any indication they’re shopping him. Besides that the Phillies have not shown any interest in the veteran outfielder. “None,” said a Major League source today. “None at all.”
It appears that the Phillies will go with their in-house talent, Ben Francisco and John Mayberry Jr. to replace Brown.
Mayberry Jr. hit .333 with 2 HR’s and 6 RBI’s in 12 AB’s with the Phillies in 2010, and Francisco hit .268 with 6 HR’s and 28 RBI’s in 179 AB’s with the Phillies in 2010.
Cameron hit .259 with 4 HR’s and 15 RBI’s in 162 AB’s with the Red Sox in 2010.
