Phillies consider Matt Chapman trade as Alec Bohm replacement

As the 2026 MLB trade deadline approaches, the Philadelphia Phillies are exploring possible upgrades for their lineup, specifically targeting San Francisco Giants infielder Matt Chapman. Analysts Jeff Passan and Kiley McDaniel have identified Chapman as a strong fit for the Phillies, given his superior defensive and offensive metrics compared to Alec Bohm. Despite Chapman's $100 million salary over four years, his recent performance this June showcases him as one of the league's top hitters, complicating the decision for Philadelphia amidst Bohm's improved play. The Phillies' front office will need to weigh financial and roster implications before making a move.
