Daily News | Jean Segura’s option declined by Phillies, now second baseman becomes free agent
The Phillies might look to upgrade in the infield. Shortstops Trea Turner and Xander Bogaerts are now both free agents, and with the flexibility to move Bryson Stott to second base, both of those candidates will surely get a look. They won’t come cheap, but with ample money coming off the books this offseason, the Phillies should have some flexibility.
Segura missed some time with a right index finger fracture that landed him on the 60-day injured list this season, but had some memorable moments this October. He sparked a rally in Game 1 of the NL Wild Card series in St. Louis with a two-RBI single in the top of the ninth inning. He also mentored some of the younger players on the team, including Bryson Stott and Alec Bohm, whom he affectionately called his “youngsters.
Segura hit .277/.336/.387 with a .723 OPS this season for the Phillies. He is a career .285/.330/.408 hitter.
