The Phillies Are The Biggest Winners In MLB Free Agency So Far
As the MLB winter meetings are happening now, it looks the Phillies are trying to make another push to the World Series.
The Phillies are looking like the biggest winners in all the MLB at the winter meetings.
To kick off the Phillies spending spree they signed Trea Turner to a massive 11-year, $300 million deal on Monday.
“For the first time since Jimmy Rollins departed via trade after the 2014 season, the team will have stability at the shortstop position, and with 2022 rookie Bryson Stott shifting to second base, the double-play combination is set for the foreseeable future.”
Trea Turner is all in on the Phillies!
He rejected an offer from the Padres that would've made him the highest paid SS in baseball 😮

The signings didn’t stop there, according to bleacherreport.com “Taijuan Walker also signed to bolster the starting rotation behind Aaron Nola, Zack Wheeler and Ranger Suárez, and left-hander Matt Strahm added to the relief corps, the Phillies have already plugged the most glaring holes on the roster and spring training is still months away.”
I love all moves that the Phillies are making all the right moves to make their team better. The Phillies still need some other relievers in the pitching staff and maybe another bat for the time that Bryce Harper will miss. But after that I think the team will be fine and could make another playoff/world series run.
