The Philadelphia Phillies are reportedly open to trading third baseman Alec Bohm this offseason as part of a potential roster shake-up. Despite a strong 2024 season in which Bohm posted a .280 batting average, 44 doubles, and earned his first All-Star selection, inconsistencies in the second half and postseason struggles have raised questions about his long-term fit with the team.
Bohm, 28, slumped after the All-Star break, hitting .251 with diminished power and faltering during the Phillies’ NLDS loss to the Mets. His two years of affordable team control and proven contact-hitting ability, however, make him a valuable trade asset. Moving Bohm could allow the Phillies to pursue high-profile free agents, such as Alex Bregman, or develop internal prospects like Aidan Miller, though immediate replacements at third base remain unclear.
General Manager Dave Dombrowski faces a pivotal decision as the team seeks to balance its roster for another postseason run while addressing late-season shortcomings.
