The Philadelphia Phillies are talking with reliever Jeremy Accardo about a minor league deal according to Jerry Crasnick via twitter. Crasnick suggests the club is still rounding out its bullpen and somewhat echoes his earlier report that they're interested in Kerry Wood.
Accardo is a right hander and at 30 is entering his 8th season, most of which have been spent with the Toronto Blue Jays. He has a career 4.22 ERA.

Philadelphia Phillies Interested in Kerry Wood - MLB Daily Dish
The Phillies will have a new look bullpen this season with the addition of closer Jonathan Papelbon but the loss of Ryan Madson and Brad Lidge. Wood could be a good addition to that. Wood would likely only attract a one year deal, as he had elbow surgery last August after pitching in only 14 innings all season.
