The Philadelphia Phillies are making another postseason run, bringing excitement to a fanbase eager for a World Series victory.
With their current roster, the Phillies are feeling confident about their chances. They’ve been one of the strongest teams in Major League Baseball over the last three seasons, and if all goes well, they could end this year with a championship.
Should they clinch the World Series, their offseason plans remain uncertain. Will they stick with the same team? Look to make slight improvements? Or will Dave Dombrowski, known for pursuing star players throughout his career, go after a major acquisition?
Reports indicate he’s interested in landing a star, regardless of October’s outcome. While that approach can be costly, the Phillies have demonstrated a willingness to spend to win, making them serious contenders for any free agent.
The priority is to win now, but with this core group likely to remain together for a while, Philadelphia has the potential for multiple championships. Why not try to extend that window?
Juan Soto has emerged as a surprising target, particularly since insiders suggest he might prefer the Phillies over the Yankees. Reports indicate that the 2022 National League Champions may look to reunite Soto with Bryce Harper and Trea Turner. Given their history of big spending in free agency—signing Harper and Turner to contracts over $300 million—it’s likely that if they fall short this season, they’ll aggressively pursue Soto.
Choosing between New York City and Philadelphia is difficult, as both cities offer significant advantages. From his perspective, there’s no clear right or wrong choice.
