The Phillies have some decisions to make on a handful of key free agents.
Designated hitter Kyle Schwarber, catcher J.T. Realmuto and left-handed pitcher Ranger Suárez are the big three. Arguably the best hitter available on the market, Schwarber could command a contract of more than $100 million. The Phillies have made it clear that they have strong interest in re-signing him.
2025 was the final year of Realmuto’s five-year, $115.5 contract signed prior to the 2021 season. He’ll enter the free agent market at age 34 with 132 games started behind the plate in 2025. He took a big step back offensively last season, posting a career-low 91 OPS+.
