PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Phillies declined club options for next season on outfielders Odúbel Herrera and Andrew McCutchen.
Herrera gets a $2.5 million buyout rather than a $11.5 million salary, completing a $30.5 million, five-year contract. He is eligible for salary arbitration.
McCutchen, signed as a free agent to a $50 million, three-year contract in December 2018, gets a $3 million buyout instead of a $15 million salary.
He hit .237 with 47 homers and 143 RBIs in three seasons in Philadelphia. He will become a free agent.
Herrera hit .274 in six seasons with the Phillies.
Both players are expected to enter free agency.
