New Phillies Star Free Agent Pitching Target Emerges
Caleb Williams Lands On Cover Of Madden NFL 27

The Philadelphia Phillies have some areas on their roster that they must improve this offseason.

One specific spot that the Phillies should look to strengthen is their bullpen. Due to this, they are now being linked to one of baseball's top free agent relief pitchers.

In a recent article for Sports Illustrated, Will Laws predicted that the Phillies will sign star free agent reliever Adrian Morejon to a three-year, $51 million contract.

If the Phillies signed Morejon, they would be getting a star setup man for their bullpen. This would be significant for the Phillies, as their bullpen could use a real boost. Morejon would give them just that if they ended up landing him.

Morejon's recent seasons show this effectively. In 76 games this campaign for the Padres, he had a 9-3 record and a 2.83 ERA. This was after he had a 13-6 record and a 2.08 ERA in 75 games for San Diego during the 2025 season. With numbers like these, he would be a major pickup for a Phillies team that wants to be true contenders.

Thus, the Phillies could be a team to keep an eye on in the Morejon sweepstakes. Yet, with the eight-year MLB veteran being a proven star reliever, Philadelphia will have a lot of competition if they try to sign him.
