Former Phillie Aaron Altherr reportedly hoping to return to MLB

A few years removed from playing his last game for the Philadelphia Phillies, Aaron Altherr is “eyeing a potential MLB comeback,” according to Steve Adams of MLB Trade Rumors.

After splitting time between the Phillies, San Francisco Giants and New York Mets in 2019, Altherr took his talents to Korea, where he’s played for the NC Dinos in each of the past two seasons. He’s coming off of his second consecutive 30+ home run campaign in the KBO, having homered 32 times with 84 RBIs and an .873 OPS across 142 games in 2021.
