RUMOR TRADE: Some “experts” have suggested that Alex Bregman will sign with the Philadelphia Phillies as opposed to staying in Houston

The Philadelphia Phillies won the National League East and finished the 2024 season with the second-best record in baseball.

Despite the successful campaign, the Phillies were bounced from the playoffs by the New York Mets in the NLDS. The early exit has forced the team to reevaluate its roster.

The Phillies are considering a serious shakeup that includes trading All-Star third baseman Alec Bohm.

Phillies’ owner John Middleton was not happy with the team’s playoff performance. And Bohm in particular played poorly, going just 1-13 in the Division Series and even getting benched for Game 2.

Of course, Bregman is a bit older than the 28-year-old Bohm as he’ll be 31 at the start of next season. But he’s won the World Series twice and could prove valuable for his play and leadership.

The Phillies could replace Alec Bohm with Alex Bregman in free agency frenzy

Regardless of the Phillies’ decision on Bohm, the team is targeting free agents this offseason. Philadelphia is looking to add an outfielder and a “top reliever.” Pitching had been one of the Phillies’ strengths over the first half of the season.

But the bullpen proved unreliable and the team would like to add a high-quality arm.
