Ruben Cardenas: Leaves Phillies organization for KBO
The Samsung Lions of the Korea Baseball Organization announced Wednesday that Cardenas signed a one-year, $477,000 contract with the club, Jee-ho Yoo of the Yonhap News Agency reports.
Cardenas had been a member of the Phillies organization at Triple-A Lehigh Valley, but he'll presumably get cut loose in the coming days now that he's reached an agreement with a KBO club. Previously acquired from the Rays in June, the 26-year-old outfielder slashed .277/.345/.550 with 20 home runs and 10 stolen bases in 322 plate appearances between Lehigh Valley and Triple-A Durham. Cardenas had yet to make his MLB debut.

Cardenas has spent all season at Triple-A Durham, where he slashed .281/.346/.530 with 11 home runs and 28 RBI across 205 plate appearances. The 26-year-old outfielder will likely report to Triple-A Lehigh Valley upon joining the Phillies, and he could make his MLB debut later in the year if he continues to be productive at the plate.
