With the Seattle Mariners shipping out their best players to kick off their rebuild, the Phillies are reportedly interested in shortstop Jean Segura.
The 28-year-old has hit .300 or better in each of his last three seasons, and in 2016 he led the league with 203 hits.
Segura would be a major offensive upgrade for the Phillies at shortstop
Philadelphia hasn’t had a shortstop that has hit over .270 since Jimmy Rollins in 2008, and no shortstop has hit at least .300 since Alex Arias in 1999.
Adding a player like Segura won’t come cheap, and our sister site SodoMojo says they believe the price for Segura will be higher than people think.
