Carlos Ruiz, who will be a free agent this winter, wants not only to re-sign with the Philadelphia Phillies but also to finish his career with the club.
Ryne Sandberg and Ruben Amaro, Jr. have both mentioned trying to bring Ruiz back.
"When you hear that, you know you still have a chance, an opportunity to come back," Ruiz said. "That's good."
Ruiz, who turns 35 in January, hit .268 in 92 games this season.
"I would like to stay here and finish my career here," Ruiz said. "But at the same time, this is the big leagues. I hope I can finish here, but if I have to go somewhere else. ... I'd definitely like to stay and wear one uniform. Like I've always said, it's not in my hands."
