Phillies' Matt McBride: Remains with Phillies

McBride reached a minor-league agreement with Philadelphia on Friday which includes an invitation to spring training.

McBride was in the same exact position a year ago and wound up spending the entire season at Triple-A Lehigh Valley. He slashed .242/.333/.479 with 10 home runs and 26 RBI, solid numbers but nothing worthy of a promotion. Expect to see him back with the IronPigs in 2019.
