The Phillies Resigned Their Star—But Is It the Missing Piece to Championship Glory?
Offseason Moves:
The main moves from the Phillies this year came in the form of resigning current players. There was a bit of a scare they wouldn’t get Kyle Schwarber back, but they did what they needed to do and got him locked up. It seemed like a mutual desire, and the Phillies get their clubhouse guy, power threat, and overall good player to be at the top of their lineup for a few more years. The other was resigning JT Realmuto. Realmuto hasn’t quite been the top-tier catcher he was a few years ago, but his production is still there and he should be okay to be the primary catcher for a couple more seasons. The other moves were a bit more under-the-radar, but still important. They bolstered their bullpen quite a bit – this was an area of concern for them for much of last year. They also signed Adolis Garcia. He isn’t the same power hitter he once was, but still has some pop left in that bat.Â
