"He made his MLB debut in 2020, had earned the starting job at third base by the end of that season, and finished second in the Rookie of the Year voting. He was a key player for the Phillies during their World Series run in 2022, and he hit the 1000th home run in World Series history, which is objectively awesome."
"He's good enough to have been an All-Star in 2024, and to receive praise from the likes of Bryce Harper, who saluted his "impact bat" as recently as July 2025. But in 2025, another word that you commonly saw associated with him is "capable." Don't get me wrong; capable is nothing to sneeze at. We've had our share of incapable and that won't get the job done."
Alec Bohm is a 29-year-old right-handed third baseman drafted third overall by the Phillies in 2018 after starring at Wichita State and in the Cape Cod League. He debuted in MLB in 2020, secured the Phillies' starting third base job, finished second in Rookie of the Year voting, and contributed during the Phillies' 2022 World Series run. He was an All-Star and Home Run Derby participant in 2024 and earned praise for his "impact bat" into 2025. In 2025 he produced 1.5 WAR with a .287/.331/.409 slash line, 11 home runs, 59 RBI, and missed time with a fractured rib. He is viewed as a capable, near-league-average player who provides a right-handed option at third base while the Red Sox clarify Alex Bregman's status.
