The Philadelphia Phillies "touched base" with Teoscar Hernández after he hit free agency following his World Series win with the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to The Athletic's Matt Gelb.
According to Gelb, the expectation around MLB is that Hernández will instead re-sign with the Dodgers.
Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski has previously indicated that one of the Phillies' offseason priorities is to find a new left or center fielder in free agency (h/t MLB.com's Todd Zolecki).
Hernández represents one of the top outfielders hitting free agency this winter outside of the New York Mets' Juan Soto.
