While they will be seeking to improve and contend, they could elect to part ways with some struggling players as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6o\">It has not been an ideal start to the season for Philadelphia. For a team that has World Series aspirations this year, they have really struggled to begin the campaign. While the team might still be without Zack Wheeler, this is a roster that has a lot of talent and some big names that are underperforming.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6r\">Of the reasons why they are struggling, it has to be the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/mlb\/phillies\/onsi\/phillies-are-worst-team-in-baseball-in-a-key-area-so-far\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> offense that is the main cause<\/a>, especially of late. This is a unit that features two of the best in baseball with Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper, but they aren\u2019t getting the help that they need. With many players struggling, the lineup looks very short, and it has been easy to navigate around the top two players.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6u\">One of the players who has really struggled is Alec Bohm. The former All-Star hasn\u2019t done much at the plate this season, and his struggles have had a negative impact on the batting order. As a free agent at the end of the season, the two will likely be parting ways. However, the team could look to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/mlb\/phillies\/onsi\/al-east-team-could-make-sense-as-trade-partner-for-phillies-alec-bohm\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">move him as well in a trade<\/a> to try to get something of value in return for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Milwaukee Brewers Could Be Option for Bohm\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/01kprvh91h3ew7w7cqva.jpg\" alt=\"Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm at the plate \" title=\"Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm at the plate \" width=\"3672\" height=\"2065\" class=\"undefined w-full w-full blur-[5px]\" q:id=\"77\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm  | Eric Hartline-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7b\">If the Brewers are going to be a contender, improving third base seems like a position that they will have to address. So far, the combination of Luis Rengifo and David Hamilton hasn&#8217;t been great.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7e\">Even though the numbers for Bohm aren\u2019t good, he has been a solid player in the past and an All-Star as recently as 2024. Due to his struggles with the Phillies, perhaps it is a change of scenery that is needed to help revitalize his career a bit.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7h\">As a free agent at the end of the year and a slugger who is currently struggling, it would not cost the Brewers much to acquire Bohm from the Phillies. For Philadelphia, this would be a deal that would send a bit of a message to the rest of the team and also clear a path for Aidan Miller to get called up when he is healthy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7k\">With Edmundo Sosa having a better season than Bohm so far, the Phillies could use him as the starter at the position while they weigh <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/mlb\/phillies\/onsi\/creating-hypothetical-trade-proposal-for-phillies-to-land-isaac-parades-from-astros\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">potential replacement options<\/a> as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.minutemediacdn.com\/platform\/google_discover_icon.svg\" class=\"shrink-0\"\/>Add us as a preferred source on Google<a aria-label=\"Follow si.com on Google News\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=si.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" class=\"flex h-[30px] w-[30px] shrink-0 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-primary font-group-large text-sm font-medium text-white transition-colors hover:bg-secondary focus:bg-secondary md:w-auto md:gap-2.5 md:px-4 md:py-[5px]\">Follow<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the Philadelphia Phillies struggling, a need to shake things up could be coming for the team.
