Philadelphia Phillies 2021-22 offseason tracker

The Philadelphia Phillies have a lot of needs, a few wants, and some things on the agenda that are a mix of both.

They need at least one starting pitcher, multiple bullpen arms, possibly a new closer, and some new blood in the outfield, now that they have declined the option on Andrew McCutchen’s contract and parted ways with Odúbel Herrera.

It sounds like Dave Dombrowski wants to replace Didi Gregorius with one of the many superstar shortstops on the free-agent market, but considering he is owed $14M on the final year of his contract, that might not be financially responsible. Then again, Dombrowski is known for his occasional financial irresponsibility, and it’s helped him win championships.

The Phillies have money to spend and roster spots to fill. With the Atlanta Braves now the reigning World Champs, the pressure is even higher to make the 2022 Phillies a legitimate threat.
