The Philadelphia Phillies have decided to place Kody Clemens on their final roster, leaving Buddy Kennedy off the team. Kennedy, who is out of options, may face a trade as the Phillies explore potential deals for him. The roster will include 13 pitchers and 13 position players. Backup catcher Rafael Marchán, along with Edmundo Sosa and either Brandon Marsh or Johan Rojas for center field, are also confirmed. Both Clemens and Kennedy struggled offensively in the majors, but Clemens has shown improvement during spring training with a solid batting average.
Clemens has had the better showing in recent weeks with spring stats of .308/.357/.500, compared to Kennedy's .162, showcasing his advantage in performance leading up to the decision.
Dombrowski confirmed that Kody Clemens made the Phillies' roster while Buddy Kennedy, who is out of options, will not make the team unless a trade can be arranged.
