Scott Kingery Goes To Minors.

Scott Kingery’s fall from grace with the Phillies has culminated in a minor league demotion.

The Phillies optioned Kingery to the minors Sunday after the 26-year-old posted a disappointing .159 batting average with 19 strikeouts and just seven hits through 15 spring training games this season.

Just three years ago, the Phillies signed Kingery to a six-year contract through the 2023 season, which included three club options for the 2024, 2025 and 2026 seasons.
