Phillies Claim Brian Bocock Off Waivers

The Phillies have claimed infielder Brian Bocock off waivers from the Blue Jays, tweets MLB.com's Todd Zolecki. Toronto just claimed Bocock off waivers from the Giants earlier this month. The 24-year-old appeared in 32 games for the Giants back in 2008, but he hasn't seen the show since. The timing is pretty interesting, because Philadelphia has a higher waiver priority than Toronto for NL players, so they had first crack at claiming Bocock earlier this month. What's changed?
