1/7/25 : Former Phillies on other organizations off-season rosters

By my count there are currently 35 former Phillies (previously with Phillies as either major or minor leaguers) on the 40 man rosters of other organizations. Twenty-one of the thirty-five were originally drafted or signed as amateur free agents by the Phillies.


In addition there are currently 57 former Phillies on the minor league rosters of other organizations. Thirty-eight of the fifty-seven  players were originally drafted or signed as amateur free agents by the Phillies. During the off-season and thru spring training teams are allowed to carry up to 40 players on the major league reserve roster and up to 175 players on the minor league roster.  Once the regular season begins the minor league roster is reduced to a maximum of 165 active players inclusive of up to 14 players assigned to the minor leagues from the 40 man major league reserve roster - injured players are placed on injured lists - those placed on long term injured lists (60 day or full season) don’t count towards the roster limits.


Here are my findings - I will update periodically over the coming months.
