Whenever Major League Baseball’s lockout concludes, Philadelphia Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski will be left to determine how the team will proceed in both center and left field.
A secondary storyline, though, will be whether fan-favorite Brad Miller returns to the team in 2022.
After spending the pandemic-shortened 2020 season with the St. Louis Cardinals, Miller returned for a second stint with the Phillies on a one-year/$3.5 million deal.
Miller is boom or bust player — heck, he admitted in a meeting with the media during the 2021 season that he tries to hit a home run in every at-bat — but he booms enough to be a valuable player.
