Bud Harrelson - Phillies and Rangers

Phillies and Rangers

After reacquiring former #1 overall pick Tim Foli, the Mets dealt Harrelson to the Philadelphia Phillies prior to the start of the 1978 season. Rose and Harrelson actually became teammates when Rose signed with the Phillies as free agents prior to the start of the 1979 season. After two seasons with the Phillies, Harrelson spent one season with the Texas Rangers before retiring.

In 1986, Harrelson was inducted into the New York Mets Hall of Fame.
