Former Manager Believes Phillies Will Have A Busy Offseason

The Philadelphia Phillies have been one of the best teams in Major League Baseball over the past three seasons.

After losing in the World Series in 2022 and losing in the NLCS in 2023, the Phillies were expected to make a deep run in the 2024 postseason.

They finished with a 95-67 record in the regular season and won their first NL East title since 2011 but were bounced from the playoffs in the NL Division Series by the New York Mets.

Former Phillies manager Larry Bowa recently said he thinks the organization will have a busy offseason before the 2025 campaign.

“I expect us to make a few moves here during the winter, and they might shock some people,” Bowa said, via MLB Network.

Bowa believes the Phillies will make some moves to address a problem he has seen them have in the postseason over the past two seasons.

He points out that, for whatever reason, Phillies hitters are chasing outside of the zone and becoming too aggressive against the better pitchers they face.

The Phillies are one of the teams rumored to be in the running to sign Juan Soto, and the outfielder is known for his plate discipline and ability to only swing at strikes.

If the Phillies were able to add Soto to their already high-powered offense, they would likely be one of the favorites to win the World Series in 2025.

Either way, the Phillies will try to make it four straight postseason appearances as they try to win their first World Series title since 2008 and third in their lengthy history.
