Phillies press release:

The Phillies have agreed to one-year contracts and avoided arbitration with pitchers Tanner Banks, Jhoan Duran and Jesús Luzardo, infielders Alec Bohm, Edmundo Sosa and Bryson Stott and outfielder Brandon Marsh.

As previously announced on Nov. 21, 2025, the Phillies agreed to terms on contracts for the 2026 season with catchers Rafael Marchán and Garrett Stubbs.

Phillies President of Baseball Operations Dave Dombrowski made the announcements.

Compiling the various reporting out there, the numbers are:

• Tanner Banks: $1.2 million (Bob Nightengale and Mark Feinsand)
• Jhoan Duran: $7.5 million (Scott Lauber)
• Jesus Luzardo: $11 million (Ari Alexander)
• Alec Bohm: $10.2 million (Matt Gelb)
• Edmundo Sosa: $4.4 million (Charlotte Varnes)
• Bryson Stott: $5.9 million (Robert Murray)
• Brandon Marsh: (TBD)

Next on the “to-do” list is signing Bo Bichette. Let’s bring him home. But when he comes to visit, make sure the doors are unlocked and that he isn’t accosted by a random electrician on his lunch break.
