The Philadelphia Phillies had an unprecedented postseason run over the past two seasons, as they lost to the New York Mets in the National League Division Series.
After making the World Series and National League championships the last two seasons, the Phillies lost their first playoff series in 2024.
Now that the offseason is underway and the free agent market is booming, another way to move players is through trades.
The Athletic’s Matt Gelb reports that the Phillies have acquired some of their better players in trade talks this offseason.
Gelb reports that the Phillies have acquired Nick Castellanos, Alec Bohm and Ranger Suarez this offseason.

Castellanos is a Philly midfielder who has been with the team since 2022.
In 2024, Castellanos played in all 162 games where he batted .254 with 23 home runs, 86 RBI and a .742 OPS.
Bohm is a Philly quarterback who has been with the team since entering the league in 2020 and was an All-Star in 2024.
He played in 143 games and hit .280 with 15 home runs, 97 RBI and a .779 OPS.
Suarez is a left-handed pitcher who has also been with the Phillies since entering the league in 2018.
In 2024, Suarez started 27 games and posted a 12-8 record with a 3.46 ERA and 145 strikeouts in 150.2 innings.
All three of these players have been starters for the Phillies and had respectable seasons in 2024.
Because of the success they have had, they are probably good candidates for the Phillies to trade, but there are currently no trades for these players.
