However, there seems to be an outfielder they are reluctant to trade.

As reported by Matt Gelb of The Athletic on the "Phillies Therapy" podcast, the front office is hesitant to trade Marsh.

"Recently, I heard — and I believe this is reliable information — that they are less inclined to move Marsh. Marsh is not as available, I would say, as some of the others. Not that they wouldn't trade him if the right offer came along. That applies to everyone. I think he's less in that group of players they are more actively trying to sell," the insider stated.

Given Philadelphia's offseason strategies, this might seem unexpected, but considering he's only 26 and has performed well during his two-and-a-half seasons with the Phillies, perhaps it isn't.

Marsh has achieved a .266/.346/.440 slash line with an OPS+ of 117 in his 309 games since being acquired at the 2022 trade deadline, and if placed in more favorable hitting situations, these numbers could improve.

As a former second-round pick of the Los Angeles Angels, his potential remains high based on his age and performance since becoming a regular player.

Retaining Marsh by keeping him in left field or platooning in center would be beneficial if they can secure the impactful player they urgently need in the outfield this winter.
