Austin Hays, acquired by the Phillies in a deadline deal with the Orioles, struggled to find his rhythm in Philadelphia, hitting .256/.275/.397 in just 22 games. Over the course of the season, he managed only five home runs in 85 games, which included his time with the Orioles. With a career OPS+ of 107, Hays has shown potential, particularly against left-handed pitching, but was projected to earn over $6 million through arbitration, prompting the Phillies to non-tender him.
