PT TOMORROW: NL East—Catch him if you can

Philadelphia Phillies

J.T. Realmuto (C, PHI) is far and away the most important player the Phillies will risk losing after his contract expires. The 29-year-old is the clear #1 catcher going into 2021—IRL and in fantasy—after hitting .267/.357/.525 with 33 R, 11 HR, 30 RBI, 4 SB in 150 AB. He is the team’s number one priority heading into next year, but expect other teams to go hard after Realmuto if the Phils can’t close the deal.

Didi Gregorius (SS, PHI) signed a 1-year $14M deal for 2020 and would also make sense a resignee—unless GM Matt Klentak would prefer to bring in Marcus Semien (SS, OAK), who might come with a slightly depressed price tag after struggling in his walk year (.703 OPS)

Alec Bohm (3B, PHI) has made a fine first...

Almost!
