Phils sign Hollins to minor league deal

The Denver Post's Troy Renck is reporting that the Phillies have agreed to a minor league contract with 35-year-old Damon Hollins, who asn't played in the majors since 2006.

The contract is worth $450,000 with $65,000 guaranteed.

Hollins can also request a trade if he's not on the 25 man roster by July 1st and can pay the Phillies $100,000 to sign with a Japanese team or $50,000 to sign with a Korean team, but the team would have the option of adding him to their roster within three days instead.
