Phillies free agency rumors: Team a potential suitor for Josh Harrison

The Phillies have already upgraded their infield this offseason, acquiring shortstop Jean Segura from the Mariners. They are looking to upgrade it further with a certain former Oriole, but in the event they can’t, they have other options available.

After eight years with the Pirates, Josh Harrison is a free agent for the first time this offseason. Jon Heyman of Fancred Sports reported that Harrison has already received interest from multiple teams with even more, including Philadelphia, potentially joining the market for him:

Josh Harrison, very good super utility player with plus 39 DRS at 2B/3B, has interest from Nats, Reds, Rangers, Giants, Brewers, with Yanks, Phils, Dodgers potentially in play, depending on the big guys

As Heyman noted, Harrison has been rather strong defensively throughout his career at second and third base.
