The 29-year-old wore No. 6 with the Los Angeles Dodgers but wore 7 with the Washington Nationals.
There is no definitive date on when the 25-year-old Song might be able to join the Phillies.
The Phillies' first spring game will be on Feb. 25 against the New York Yankees.
While the Phillies haven't officially announced the deal, Walker, 30, tweeted a video of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" theme song.
The report didn't indicate in what order the Phillies will meet with the free agent shortstops.
Jake Cave's time with the Baltimore Orioles lasted almost two full months.
The 28-year-old Eflin declined his $15 million mutual option with the Phillies last month to become a free agent.
The hot stove should heat up quite a bit next week.
Harper tore his UCL while making a throw in a game in April and was relegated to full-time DH duty for most of the season.
The Phillies divided $25.8 million into 72 full shares, 15.03 partial shares and $20,000 in cash awards.
The résumé offers a convincing case. If the price is right, the fit might be too for the Phillies.
Swanson might not have the name recognition as Trea Turner, Carlos Correa and Xander Bogaerts, but he may project the best of the four free agent shortstops.
The Phillies organization said keeping Dombrowski around helps them toward their ultimate goal: winning a World Series championship.
Bogaerts opted out of the final three years of a six-year, $120 million extension he signed with Boston in 2019 when Dave Dombrowski was the Red Sox's president of baseball operations.
The Phillies could spend that cash on free-agent star shortstops such as Trea Turner, Xander Bogaerts, Dansby Swanson and Carlos Correa.
The Phillies came up two wins short in their quest to bring home the World Series, but their magical playoff run was a grand slam for the city.
Another Silver Slugger winner is Trea Turner, who's a free agent that one sportsbook lists the Phillies as the favorites to sign.
Free agents can sign with new teams beginning at 5 p.m. Thursday.
If he goes under the knife, he could miss the beginning of next season.
Turner and Phillies slugger Bryce Harper spent four seasons playing together with the Washington Nationals.
Asche also has been a minor league hitting coach for the Philadelphia Phillies.
The Phillies hope their run to the World Series is just the start of a championship window.
The Phillies also, as expected, picked up starting pitcher Aaron Nola's $18 million club option.
The man who took over a 22-29 team and led it to Game 6 of the World Series is, somehow, not a finalist for the National League Manager of the Year Award.
The Phillies' magical season has come to an end.
