The Phillies are off to a decent start this season, but they find themselves lagging behind the Mets, who boast the best pitching in baseball. Despite strong performances from players like Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber, the team is hindered by poor offensive production from players like Brandon Marsh and Alec Bohm. Bohm, in particular, has been especially disappointing, raising concerns about his long-term viability as the team's third baseman, especially given the lack of defensive prowess and overall contributions to the team's success.
"Despite a solid start, the Phillies trail the Mets largely due to New York's superior pitching, overshadowing the Phillies' offensive strengths and individual player struggles."
"Bohm's ongoing slump, coupled with his previous season's decline, raises questions about his role as an everyday third baseman for a playoff contender."
