The Philadelphia Phillies have signed right-handed reliever Corey Knebel to a one-year contract, the club announced Wednesday.

Knebel will earn $10 million, MLB Network's Jon Heyman reports.

The 30-year-old is the latest pitching addition for the Phillies, who have already added Ryan Sherriff, Nick Nelson, Scott Moss, Yoan Lopez, and Kent Emanuel in various deals this offseason.

Knebel spent the 2021 campaign with the Los Angeles Dodgers, authoring a 2.45 ERA, 2.90 FIP, and 0.97 WHIP to go with 10.5 strikeouts per nine in 25 2/3 innings.

The one-time All-Star saved 57 games for the Milwaukee Brewers during his five-year stint with the organization. He underwent Tommy John surgery in 2019.
