2025 Topps Now #326
As of this writing in late December, the Phillies have reportedly offered J.T. Realmuto a two-year deal, but the All-Star catcher is still shopping around for better offers.  If he departs via free agency, Realmuto's Phillies legacy will show two All-Star Game appearances, a pair of Gold Gloves and six seasons batting .265 while averaging 23 home runs and 84 RBIs per 162 games played.  He appeared in 134 games in 2025, batting .257 with 12 home runs and 52 RBIs.  His 132 games behind the plate ranked first int he National League in 2025, as did his 30 runners caught stealing and his 1,216 putouts.  Realmuto would be tough to replace, and hopefully he's accepted the team's offer by the time this post publishes.
