The Philadelphia Phillies wasted no time reuniting with an old friend after missing out on Bo Bichette.
Philadelphia agreed to to a three-year, $45-million contract with free-agent catcher J.T. Realmuto, sources told Robert Murray of FanSided. The contract includes annual award bonuses and performance incentives that could raise the deal's total value to $60 million, per Jon Heyman of the New York Post.
Realmuto, who will turn 35 in March, has spent the last seven seasons as the Phillies' primary catcher. He's won two Gold Gloves and two of his three career Silver Sluggers during his time in Philadelphia.
