CHAD QUALLS RUMORS & GOSSIP

Marlins sign reliever Chad Qualls to minor league deal

The Miami Marlins continue their bargain bin signings this winter adding relief pitcher Chad Qualls on a minor league contract. Qualls will compete for a spot in the Marlins bullpen. Last season Qualls spent time for three different teams. Overall the 34-year-old finished with a 5.33 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP.

Former Phillies RHP Chad Qualls "Helps Destroy" Both Pennsylvania Teams in One Year?

Great line from CBS Sports' Danny Knobler tonight: Yes, it's true.  Chad Qualls has been absolutely horrible.   Tonight the Pittsburgh Pirates had a 7-4 lead over the Milwaukee Brewers, and then enter Chad Qualls. Qualls got one out and managed to give up three earned runs, eliminating the Pirates' lead.  His ERA is, as Knobler mentions, 7.94.  For the season...

Chad Qualls has close shave after trade to Yankees

Newly acquired pitcher Chad Qualls found out what Don Mattingly, Reggie Jackson and a long line of other New York Yankees have discovered before him— that a clean-shaven Bronx Bomber is a welcome Bronx Bomber.  Going from worst-to-first can make that trip to the barber's chair a little easier though. Qualls made his Yankee debut Monday night after being traded from the last...

Ruben Amaro Arranges Unicorn Ride, Trades Chad Qualls to the Yankees

UNREAL: A TEAM ACTUALLY TOOK CHAD QUALLS OFF OF THE PHILLIES HANDS!  The New York Yankees of all teams took Qualls off of the Phillies hands' for a player to be named later or cash.

Chad Qualls Has Been Designated For Assignment

It seems as if millions of prayers have been answered.  Chad Qualls has been designated for assignment. In a corresponding move, Jeremy Horst has been called up. The Phillies signed Qualls to a one-year $1.15 MM contract in the offseason with hopes that he could continue his success as a relief pitcher as he did last season with Arizona.

Phillies Fans: Get Excited About Chad Qualls

Phils Sign Qualls To Unnecessary Deal

The Phillies signed reliever Chad Qualls to a one year deal worth $1.15 million on Tuesday. The move is likely their last of the offseason as the major league roster is close to filled and the team is right up against the luxury tax threshold. While one year deals almost always benefit the team, and while $1.15 million isn’t exactly a king’s ransom, the deal doesn’t make much...
