After several excellent seasons in the Expos' bullpen-by-committee (12-4 in 1988), Parrett was traded to the Phillies in
December 1988. By the middle of 1989, he was sharing the role of bullpen stopper with
Roger McDowell after ace
Steve Bedrosian was traded. After a bad first half, Parrett was traded on
August 3, 1990 to Atlanta as the main component of a deal for two-time MVP
Dale Murphy. Later released by the Braves, he bounced around with three other clubs before going back to Philly in
August 1996 for his final 18 appearances in the majors. (
