Manager Rob Thomson spoke with reporters on Tuesday at the Winter Meetings in Dallas. He fielded questions on a few topics. Perhaps his most intriguing comments came when the Phillies skipper talked about Alec Bohm.
Bohm’s name has been thrown around in trade speculation this offseason. The Phillies are open to shaking things up this winter. Trading Bohm could be part of that. But Thomson, who spoke with Bohm on Monday, said the Phillies aren’t necessarily the ones throwing the third baseman’s name into trade talks.
“I talked to him on the phone yesterday,” Thomson said. He added that Bohm is currently in Houston.
