Ed Wade to Return to the Philadelphia Phillies

The Phillies are bringing former GM Ed Wade back into the organization. Wade was fired by the Astros after last season. Ed will re-join the Philadelphia Phillies as a special consultant to the baseball operations department. During his time as GM in Philadelphia, Wade acquired players such as Jim Thome, Shane Victorino and Billy Wagner. He was also at the helm when the Phillies drafted Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, Pat Burrell, Cole Hamels, Ryan Madson and Brett Myers.

In his new role with the Phillies, Wade will assist in salary arbitration consultation, while also scouting at both the major and minor league levels, the team said.

Wade, 55, served as general manager for parts of 13 years for both the Phillies, from 1998 to 2005, and the Houston Astros from 2007 to 2011.
While he was with the Astros, he engineered the trades that sent the Phillies Brad Lidge, Roy Oswalt and Hunter Pence.
