Phillies' Carlos Estevez: Open to any role
Carlos Estevez, when asked Monday what his role with the Philadelphia Phillies would be, responded, "I'm down for whatever, man," Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.Estevez was acquired in a trade with the Angels on Saturday, with pitching prospects George Klassen and Samuel Aldegheri going the other way. Estevez saved 20 games and produced a 2.38 ERA and 0.74 WHIP prior to the move, but his new manager Rob Thomson typically preferred a committee approach. Estevez may well be ahead of both Jose Alvarado (13 saves) and Jeff Hoffman (nine saves) on the closer depth chart, but his share of the ninth inning will likely be smaller than it was in Los Angeles.
