The Phillies have named former Tampa Bay Devil Rays general manager Chuck LaMar as their Director of Professional Scouting.
LaMar, 51, worked last season with the Washington Nationals as the special assistant to the general manager and national crosschecker.
"Chuck brings a lot of experience in many different capacities to our club," Phillies general manager Pat Gillick said in a news release. "We're pleased we had the opportunity to bring someone with his background into the organization."
