Phillies to Meet With Bo Bichette
The Philadelphia Phillies have scheduled a meeting with free-agent infielder Bo Bichette, multiple league sources told Matt Gelb and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. The Phillies' interest in Bichette is "legitimate," and if he signs with the team, it will likely "require the team to move on from roster mainstays J.J. Realmuto and Alec Bohm." The Cubs and Red Sox are also looking at Bichette, and both the Dodgers and Yankees could eventually get involved. Bichette's willingness to move off shortstop has opened the door for Philly to pursue him this offseason. If Bichette is added, it would almost certainly mean that they will not re-sign Realmuto, and Bohm would be an obvious trade candidate. Bichette, 28, would most likely be asked to play third base, a position he's never played, if he joins the Phils. Fantasy-wise, a move to Philly would be just about one of the best landing spots Bichette could have.
