ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Philadelphia Phillies acquired right-hander Daniel Robert from the Texas Rangers for minor league pitcher Enrique Segura on Thursday.
The 30-year-old Robert had been a career minor leaguer before making his big league debut last season, when he allowed two runs over 5 2/3 innings in four appearances for Texas. He had been off to a good start this season at Triple-A Round Rock, too, with a 1.54 ERA through his first 10 appearances.
The Phillies plan to start him off at Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
The 20-year-old Segura began last season with the Phillies’ rookie-level club before moving up to Class A Clearwater, where he initially struggled. But he had a 3.18 ERA in three starts and four total appearances so far this season.
