The Philadelphia Phillies have shown consistent improvement in regular season performance, increasing their win totals for six consecutive years, excluding the 2020 season. However, postseason success has eluded them, with recent playoff exits against the Houston Astros and Arizona Diamondbacks.
To enhance their chances, the Phillies are exploring roster changes, including placing All-Star third baseman Alec Bohm on the trade block. The team is also considering free agency moves, particularly for their bullpen, which may need reinforcements.
Jeff Hoffman, a key player from the bullpen, is expected to be re-signed, while Carlos Estevez, also a free agent, is attracting interest from other teams. The Phillies must act decisively to retain these players to maintain their competitive edge.
