Phillies fans all over the Delaware Valley finally got a bit of good news during what has been a very quiet off-season: the team signed catcher J.T. Realmuto.
The Phillies offered $10M, which would be a new record for catchers in their third year of arbitration. But Realmuto and his agent decided asked for $12.4M.
It will not be long before Phillies pitchers and catchers report to Clearwater, FL, to begin workouts for the 2020 season. Among them will be All-Star and Silver Slugging-catcher J.T. Realmuto.
