I went down this rabbit hole. Wheeler should not have qualified. Antone shouldn't have either--to comeback, you have to be there in the first place. A couple promising ~30 IP seasons aren't enough. Eduardo Rodriguez and Nolan Arenado should have split the vote.

Zack Wheeler came back with one less rib from a surgery that ends careers and returned to be an ace throwing 150 innings Tejay Antone returned from his third TJ (impressive) but just to be a decent middle reliever on a bad team and throw 55 innings This is nonsense

Tejay Antone robbed. Wheeler threw 150 innings with a 2.71 ERA last season lol. Feels like we’re losing the plot of what that award is for. (Very cool he made such a quick recovery, not trying to downplay it)

I think a Marsh trade is almost a guarantee I think it’ll be for bullpen help but not sure what they’ll want to do to fill the other OF spot

“Japanese left-handed slugger Teruaki Sato is younger (he turns 28 in March), not tied to draft-pick compensation, and of interest to the Phillies as a left fielder, according to two sources who aren’t authorized to speak publicly.” -@ScottLauber

I think I’d rather them hand the starting 3B job to Aidan Miller than spend money on bringing Bohm back Address your OF & bullpen needs with the money saved, flip Turner & Stott at SS/2B Kim can play all 3 IF positions if they get him as a super U

The pipe dream of Adrian Morejon converting to a SP is dead. I’ll view him as an RP. In ‘26: 76 G, 86 IP, 107 K, 2.83 ERA, 2.34 xERA, 30.4% K-rate. Elite SI, CH, 4SFB to generate whiffs. Match made in heaven for the Phillies tbh.

There’s is an interesting route and I wouldn’t mind if they went this way with Marsh. Clear the money and get some prospects

For the 6th year in a row the #Phillies were shut out in the Rookie of the Year voting, without a single down-ballot vote. The only other time they had a drought like that was in 1974-79. thegoodphight.com/post/aOBar… __ @TheGoodPhight

According to sources, the Phillies are eyeing free-agent infielder Ha-Seong Kim. More from Jim Salisbury: nbcsportsphiladelphia.com/ml…
Sources: Phillies eyeing free-agent infielder Ha-Seong Kim for important role

Sources: Phillies eyeing free-agent infielder Ha-Seong Kim for important role

Ha-Seong Kim has been an everyday shortstop. The Phils need insurance at the position in case Trea Turner is moved.
