Overview

• Former GM Ruben Amaro Jr. said on 94.1 WIP that the Phillies may move “one of the big contracts,” a remark made public on Monday.
• The team’s largest deals are with Bryce Harper, Trea Turner, Aaron Nola, Zack Wheeler and Nick Castellanos, according to Spotrac.
• Reporting indicates Harper and Wheeler are unlikely to be moved and Castellanos has one year left, leaving Turner or Nola as more plausible trade candidates, though both hold full no-trade clauses.
• The Philadelphia Inquirer reports Dombrowski is expected to make more changes this winter than in his previous offseasons after the club retained manager Rob Thomson.
• Key decisions include potential returns for free agents Kyle Schwarber and J. T. Realmuto, a push to promote prospects Andrew Painter and Justin Crawford, and outside speculation linking the club to free agent Kyle Tucker.
