The Philadelphia Phillies are focusing on strengthening their bullpen this offseason, particularly looking for a reliable left-handed setup pitcher. After being eliminated in the National League Wild Card Series last season, improvements are viewed as necessary to maintain competitiveness. Adrian Morejon, an All-Star in 2025, is believed to be a key target. He is coming off impressive performances, posting a 2.83 ERA this past season and a 2.58 ERA over the last three years. His versatility could shorten games for the Phillies when paired with closer Jhoan Duran.
