The Philadelphia Phillies were one of the best regular season teams in 2024, but their entire year fell apart in October. After landing eight players on the National League All-Star team, Philadelphia failed to win a postseason series.<\/p>\n

Heading into the offseason, there are some drastic changes the Phillies need — and will look — to make. They’ve been connected to both of the White Sox’s available stars, Luis Robert Jr. and Garrett Crochet.<\/p>\n

But MLB insider Jim Bowden has made a bold prediction about what the Phillies will do this winter and the fan base will likely be split on it. “Lefty Tanner Scott signs a four-year, $60 million deal with the Phillies, who say goodbye to high-leverage relievers Jeff Hoffman and Carlos Est\u00e9vez in free agency,” Bowden wrote for The Athletic.<\/p>\n

Bold prediction from Bowden, to say the least. Scott, 30, posted a 1.18 ERA in 45.2 innings with the Marlins before being dealt to the Padres at the trade deadline. With San Diego, Scott posted a 2.73 ERA in 26 1\/3 innings to end the year. He was rumored to be connected to the Phillies before San Diego mortgaged the farm system to acquire him.<\/p>\n

Estevez, 31, was acquired by the Phillies for two top pitching prospects at the trade deadline. He posted a 2.45 ERA in 55 innings split between the Angels and the Phillies. Hoffman, 31, was named to his first All-Star Game in 2024. He posted a 2.17 ERA in 66 1\/3 regular season innings before surrendering six earned runs in 1 1\/3 postseason innings.<\/p>\n

The Phillies will address their bullpen this winter. Whether they do it by re-signing their expiring contracts or buying outside free agents is currently unknown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
