According to MLB.com, citing the player’s agent, the Astros, Brewers, Padres, Angels and Rockies have also expressed an interest in talking with free-agent 2B Tadihito Iguchi, who was released the Phillies yesterday, and is seeking a three-year deal.

Iguchi played for the White Sox in 2005 and 2006, hitting .278 as a rookie, then .281 with 18 HR, and 67 RBI the following year. 

However, he hit just .267 with nine HR while with the Phillies last season, after being acquired from Chicago in a mid-season trade.
