The trade market for Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm has been colder than expected.
Buster Olney of ESPN reported it's believed that the lack of interest in Bohm can likely be attributed to his poor defense.
"So far, the Phillies' expected makeover hasn't happened," Olney wrote. "They signed Jason Romano for the bullpen, but it still needs more help, and the trade market has not been jumping at third baseman Alec Bohm; some evaluators speculate that this is because of concerns about his defense."
Bohm hit .280/.332/.448 with 15 home runs and 97 RBIs in 2024.
