Phillies Sign Adolis García to $10M Deal, Signaling End of Castellanos Era
The Philadelphia Phillies have reportedly signed outfielder Adolis García to a one-year, $10 million deal, signaling the end of Nick Castellanos' tenure. García, non-tendered by the Rangers on Nov 21, is expected to be the Phillies' primary right fielder in 2026. While he struggled at the plate in 2025 (.227/.271/.394, 19 HR, 75 RBI), he's a strong defensive addition (1 OAA) and showed improved exit velocity and a career-low 24.7% strikeout rate. The Phillies hope for a rebound, leveraging his power in Citizens Bank Park. García was a 2023 WS MVP, ALCS MVP, and Gold Glove winner.
