Catcher Gary Sánchez could be interesting trade target for Phils

The Philadelphia Phillies front office may have to get creative if managing partner John Middleton is not willing to do what it takes to retain superstar catcher J.T. Realmuto.

In looking for a catcher to replace him, two-time All-Star Gary Sánchez could be an intriguing trade option if the Phillies don’t re-sign Realmuto in free agency this offseason

Sánchez entered the majors with the New York Yankees as a true power-hitting threat at the catcher position from the get-go, but his recent offensive struggles caused his team to look at different options down the stretch this year.
