After not being tendered a contract by the New York Mets, Wilmer Flores could fall into the Phillies lap this offseason and be a productive player.
Among several things on the Phillies checklist this offseason is to rebuild the bench. After acquiring Wilson Ramos, Asdrubal Cabrera, Jose Bautista, and Justin Bour over the summer all four enter the offseason as free agents.
Philadelphia is now left with a bench consisting of Aaron Altherr, Mitch Walding, Andrew Knapp, Roman Quinn, and J.P. Crawford, potentially the worst bench in baseball. They’re essentially back to square one with the bench.
