Randal Grichuk Linked to Philadelphia
Free agent outfielder Randal Grichuk has been linked to the Philadelphia Phillies, according to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic. Grichuk would serve as a platoon option in left field alongside Brandon Marsh. While reports suggest that they are still linked to the remaining top free agents like Bo Bichette, Kyle Tucker, and Alex Bregman, the price tag would need to come down significantly for the Phillies to be a serious contender to acquire them. Grichuk spent the 2025 campaign with the Diamondbacks and Royals. Through 113 games, the 34-year-old held a .228/.273/.401 line but generated a .262 xBA with a 453 xSLG, which suggests he could be in store for a bounce-back campaign in 2026. If he were to sign a deal in Philadelphia, he would have appeal in deeper five-outfielder leagues, given that he would likely only be deployed on the weak side of a platoon.
