Phillies May Make A Play For Russ Springer

But while they may be less inclined to pursue Cruz, the Phillies still could make a play for veteran right-handers Doug Brocail or Russ Springer, who weren't offered arbitration by the Houston Astros or St. Louis Cardinals, respectively. Brocail, 41, registered a 3.93 ERA in 72 appearances last season, and Springer, 40, is 10-2 with a 2.24 ERA in 146 games over the past two years.
