Evan Phillips Re-Signs with Dodgers, Expected Back in July

Reliever Evan Phillips has agreed to a one-year, $6.5 million contract to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Phillips is currently recovering from Tommy John surgery, performed last June 4, and is not expected to make his season debut until July. His return will bolster the Dodgers' bullpen later in the season. Non-tendered in November, the Dodgers expressed interest in his return. Since 2021, Phillips has been a top reliever with a 2.22 ERA, 2.87 xERA in 201 games, and 45 saves.
