Re-signing Didi Gregorius looks like a costly mistake by the Philadelphia Phillies.
This offseason, the Phillies signed Gregorius to a two-year, $28 million deal. With a little more than a month left in his first year of the deal, that’s … not looking so good.
OK, so it’s been downright ugly since.
Although he’d had a successful 60-game stint with the club in 2020, getting the team’s money’s worth out of the deal was going to be difficult if he hit more like the 2019 version of himself than the 2020 version.
