Several recent non-tendered players<\/a> from other teams could be a fit for the Philadelphia Phillies. The Phillies recently decided to non-tender pitchers Michael Mercado<\/a> and Daniel Robert<\/a>. Additionally, the team agreed to a contract with catchers Rafael March\u00e1n<\/a> and Garrett Stubbs<\/a>, with Stubbs on a split contract avoiding arbitration in the process. All other arbitration-eligible players on the Phillies were tendered contracts. The most notable player tendered a contract is Alec Bohm<\/a>. It is expected that he will be traded<\/a> at some point this offseason. The Phillies organization seems to view Bohm more highly than the other 29 teams. His being tendered a contract is not a complete surprise, but it would not have been entirely unexpected if he had been non-tendered.<\/p>\n

Non-Tendered Players Who Could End Up With The Phillies<\/h2>\n

Nic Enright<\/h3>\n

The Phillies need to fill some open bullpen spots, and Nic Enright<\/a> could be a part of that. With the Cleveland Guardians this season, Enright had a 2-1 record with a 2.03 ERA and one save in 27 games. He recorded a 1.161 WHIP with a 2.50 K\/BB rate at the major league level. Meanwhile, he had a 1.38 ERA and a 1.077 WHIP with a 1.71 K\/BB rate in 13 minor league outings in 2025, picking up one save. Enright did not give up a home run across 29 Triple-A appearances between 2024 and 2025. However, concerns with Enright are his strikeout-to-walk rate and the fact that he allows a decent amount of hard contact. Phillies pitching coach Caleb Cotham<\/a> could help with these issues. Enright is entering his age-29 season.<\/p>\n
