Phillies Have Placed Surprising Veteran On The Trade Block

The Philadelphia Phillies finished the 2024 season as the National League East champions with a record of 95 wins and 67 losses.

Although they won the division, the Phillies were upset by the New York Mets in the National League Division Series.

After the NLDS loss to the Mets, the Phillies have made a surprising move and placed a veteran player on the trade block.

According to ESPN’s Jeff Passan, the Phillies are willing to trade Alec Bohm in an attempt to shake up their roster after the NLDS loss.

Bohm came into the league with the Phillies in 2020 and has played all five seasons of his MLB career with the organization.

In 2024, Bohm played 143 games where he batted .280 with 15 home runs, 97 RBIs, and a .779 OPS which was good enough to earn him an all-star selection.

Although Bohm had an exceptional regular season, through four postseason games he had one hit in 13 at-bats.

Bohm was selected to his first career all-star game in 2024, and he should get some attention from other teams now that the Phillies have announced they are willing to part ways with him.

The Phillies have plenty of star power on their roster, and it will be interesting to see what they get in return if they are to trade Bohm.

In 2025, the Phillies will look to repeat as NL East champions for the first time since they won the division five years in a row from 2007-2011.
