Arraez Acquisition Triggers Phillies Defensive Reshuffling
Philadelphia's first-choice alignment moves Stott to third, Bohm to first, and Harper back to right field to accommodate Arraez at second base.
The Phillies are planning to install Luis Arraez at second base following his acquisition. The preferred alignment has Bryson Stott shifting to third base and Alec Bohm moving to first base. Bryce Harper, who has been playing first base, would return to right field — a move Harper has indicated he is willing to make. The report is attributed to beat reporter Matt Gelb, lending credibility to the planned configuration.
