Despite the Philadelphia Phillies thinking they just about have their outfield set for 2026, there's still a piece missing from the puzzle. With a platoon spot vacant in left field, the Phillies missed out on an opportunity to bring in a quality right-handed bat after free agent Rob Refsnyder signed with the Seattle Mariners on Monday.
With the left-handed-hitting Brandon Marsh penciled in for the majority of at-bats as the left fielder next season, the Phillies really need a platoon bat who hits lefties well. That could have been the 10-year MLB veteran Refsnyder, who mashes left-handed pitching and signed a one-year deal for only $6.
