Career

Philadelphia Phillies
[edit]In 2013, the Red Sox traded Ogando to the Philadelphia Phillies for John McDonald.[1] In 2014, Ogando pitched for the Reading Fightin' Phils of the Class AA Eastern League.[2] The Phillies assigned Ogando to the Arizona Fall League, and he appeared in the league's all-star game.[3] After the season, the Phillies added Ogando to their 40-man roster.[4]
The Philles promoted Ogando to the major leagues in August,[5] but optioned him back to the minor leagues without making an appearance.
Ogando made his major league debut on September 9 against the Atlanta Braves at Citizens Bank Park. He pitched an inning in relief of Dalier Hinojosa and gave up two runs on a bases-clearing triple by Michael Bourn.[6][7]

On December 23, 2016, Ogando was claimed off waivers by the Pittsburgh Pirates.[10] He was designated for assignment on February 10, 2017, following the acquisition of Phil Gosselin.[11]
