@AmyElnoraZ @AllAshworth @TheAthletic The bias is from Phillies fans like you both who like him. That’s fine. His numbers say otherwise. He’s the 29th ranked offensive 3rd baseman in the league and the 28th ranked defensive 3rd baseman. Gotta watch other teams to understand how limited he is

[. @GoBirds8]

@Barrelldelphia @TTV_WAR_MACHINE @AmyElnoraZ @TheAthletic Bohm is the 3rd worst fielding 3B in the league. He has a -6 OAA defensively. You’re objectively wrong. Liking Bohm as a fan is fine but he’s not a good baseball player lol

[Mitch Rupert @Mitch_Rupert]

I mean, this is just a brutal takedown from Keith Law. He's not wrong, but damn ...

This can’t be a real quote. Dave Dombrowski is a moron and deserves to be fired. Alec Bohm will have the lowest OPS of any qualified 1B in baseball

[Luke Arcaini @ArcainiLuke]

Dave Dombrowski was asked about why the Phillies kept Alec Bohm:

“Well, he's got close to 60 RBIs and 13-14 homers. I mean, it sounds like, and I know frustrations can rise when you see, it was a good point made by a scout…

When you see a player everyday, you have a tendency to look at their downside. But if you compare his numbers, how many guys have more RBIs than him? We think he’s a good player”

[. @GoBirds8]

@swmckercher Did anyone ask him why he thinks Bohm, who will have the lowest qualifying OPS of any first basemen is good enough for a playoff team?

[. @GoBirds8]

@ByDavidMurphy Having Alec Bohm as your starting 1B in the year 2026 should be a fireable offense. Not sure how you don’t upgrade that spot

[. @GoBirds8]

I’d legit trade Alec Bohm to the Bananas for the dumbass who plays on stilts

[. @GoBirds8]

Get Alec Bohm off the baseball team.

[Bob Nightengale @BNightengale]

The Philadelphia Phillies are planning on moving Bryce Harper to right field.
Luis Arraez will play 2nd base.
Bryson Stott will play 3rd base.

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP Lol. They had that luxury because they already had a WR1 on their roster. AJ was expendable. There are no good, cheap win now QB1s and his dead money makes it prohibitive to bring in a proven QB1 before 2028. Now that we’ve settled that… who are you replacing Jalen with anyway?

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP Yes, it’s spread across the 3 years listed in the image below. The Eagles replaced AJ with Wicks and Lemon who have little to no cap impact. Replacing a QB is significantly different. So you’re either replacing him with an unproven rookie or at the numbers in the Baker scenario

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP Maybe. Depends on his play but he’s proven you can win the division, conference and SB with him at QB. He’s a significantly better option than whatever else is out there at the numbers above

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP You’re using an ai source lol. OTC splits the charge. It’s 20M in 27. 16M in 28 and 8M in 29. The 42M gets spread across those years. It’s still accumulative. So, if you signed Baker at 35M for 3 years, you’d really be allocating 52M, 48M, 42M to the position.

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP Again, you’re not accumulating your numbers. Say they signed Baker at 35M in March 27. They’d have him and JH on the roster for 77M in 27. Then post 6/1 they’d trade JH and get that number to 52M. That’s an absurd number for Baker. Hurts would be cheaper for the same production

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP Your numbers are wrong. Also AJ has a dead cap of 21M this year and 27M next. It works because they have a proven replacement in Smitty. They didn’t have to add a 40M free agent to replace his production. They would with Jalen on top of his dead cap. https://t.co/YcS9hQ4AhP

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP If they’re drafting a QB then they’re rebuilding and you don’t do that with this defense. It’s too financially irresponsible/ risky to move on before 28 league year

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP The Eagles aren’t dumb enough to do that. Second, draft a rookie starter to a roster that’s in win now mode. Fun fact, Hurts is the most recent drafted QB to make a SB. Again, the Eagles aren’t that stupid.

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP You clearly don’t understand the cap. Post June 1st cut doesn’t mean you can build a roster over the cap pre June 1st. Free agency, draft, your roster is all built pre 6/1 for 2027. You’d carry the new QBs cap and Jalen’s current cap (45M) until 6/1 of 2027

[. @GoBirds8]

@6LackPantha @tweet_kune_do @SportsRadioWIP Trading him post 6/1 still prevents you from adding a proven player pre 6/1 and fill your roster. Any proven QB is getting 40M a year and the Eagles aren’t allocating 60M+ (40 to new QB and 20 in dead cap) when they can just keep Hurts for 40M. He’s here till 28 on this deal
