Josh Fields, a former first round pick and top prospect, has signed a contract with the Phillies.

After hitting 23 homers in 100 games as a rookie in the Chicago organization in 2007, Fields hit just .228 with 10 homers and a .649 OPS in his next 106 games.

Fields has experience in the corner infield and corner outfield spots, so he'll compete for a bench gig during spring training under a Minor League deal.
