Mon Mar 19 201815:14Rangers claim 1B Tommy Joseph on waivers from Phillies
SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) — The Texas Rangers have claimed first baseman Tommy Joseph off waivers from the Philadelphia Phillies.The Rangers made the move Monday, a week after the Phillies designated him for assignment when they signed free agent pitcher Jake Arrieta.The 26-year-old Joseph hit over 20 home runs in each of his two seasons in the majors. He batted .240 with 22 homers and 69 RBIs while starting 125 times at first last year.Philadelphia signed power-hitting free agent Carlos Santana to play first this season.Joseph was traded from San Francisco to the Phillies in July 2012 as part of a package for outfielder Hunter Pence. Highly regarded at the time, Joseph was projected to be Philadelphia's catcher of the future until a series of concussions prompted the Phillies to turn him into a first baseman three years later.Joseph made his big league debut in May 2016 and hit .257 with 21 home runs and 47 RBIs.In 11 spring training games this year, Joseph hit .429 (9 for 21) before being cut.Texas put right-hander Clayton Blackburn on the 60-day disabled list with a strained right elbow. He is expected to miss four to six weeks.

"I was coming hard. It's not up to you as a player or a friend. Ultimately it's up to the people in charge to get this done and they did it."General manager Matt Klentak called it an "exciting day for the Phillies organization and our fans.""Jake is among the best pitchers in baseball and his list of accomplishments is exceptional," Klentak said in a press release.
