I could be mistaken, but I think Drew was there because he got drafted by the Phillies, wouldn't sign a contract with them and so needed somewhere to play for a year before being eligible to be drafted again. You see guys do that sometimes. Hochevar did it too I think. They don't have college eligibility, they aren't part of an organization and so don't play in their minor leagues, and so they play indepenedent ball.
