It’s arbitration season! Much like Groundhog Day or St. Patrick’s Day, it’s a day on the calendar that just seems to sneak up on you, catching you unawares. Sure, you knew that it was due soon, but already? Surely it slipped your mind.
For the Phillies, that means trying to sign players for 2023 and today, they’ve taken care of a fairly significant piece of budgetary business, securing a number for Rhys Hoskins for the coming year.
Sources: Rhys Hoskins, Phillies settle at $12 million, avoiding arbitration.

Considering MLB Trade Rumors and they’re eerily accurate arbitration projection formulas, this number the team and player agreed to comes in a little low, MLBTR saying Hoskins would get $12.
