Philadelphia Phillies Alec Bohm Nolan Arenado Alex Bregman Trade Rumors

The Philadelphia Phillies are exploring significant roster changes following a disappointing end to the 2024 season. One of the most surprising moves being considered is trading All-Star third baseman Alec Bohm. Despite having a career year in 2024, Bohm’s performance slumped in the second half of the season, particularly in the postseason where he had just one hit in 13 at-bats[3].

If the Phillies decide to trade Bohm, several high-profile players have been mentioned as potential replacements. One such player is St. Louis Cardinals superstar Nolan Arenado. Arenado, who has three years and $74 million remaining on his contract (excluding the portion paid by the Rockies), could provide the offensive boost the Phillies are seeking. His contract and performance make him an attractive option for teams aiming to win a World Series in the next few seasons.

Another candidate to fill the potential void at third base is Alex Bregman, who recently hit free agency after nine years with the Houston Astros. Bregman, a two-time All-Star and Gold Glove Award winner, has a strong postseason record and could be a significant addition to the Phillies. ESPN‘s Buster Olney has predicted that the Phillies might land Bregman, who is expected to sign a long-term contract worth around $170 million over seven years.

The Phillies’ interest in these players reflects their desire to capitalize on the remaining windows of success for veteran stars like Bryce Harper and Zack Wheeler. The team is open to making substantial changes to enhance their chances of a deep postseason run in the coming years[3][5].
