Harmful: Phillies Regret Avoiding Him At Trade Deadline Because ……
It’s possible that his former adversary made the Phillies regretpass him at the trade deadline. After being traded to the Yankees, former Marlins outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. went all out against the Phillies. When the New York Yankees visited the city earlier this week, one player stood out above the others despite the fact that the typical suspects helped the big bad Bronx Bombers’ explosive attack extend the Philadelphia Phillies’ losing streak. No, it wasn’t Juan Soto or Aaron Judge. It was Jazz Chisholm Jr., the newest Yankee. Chisholm, who was traded by the Miami Marlins to the Yankees on July 27, didn’t have to wait long to play again, this time against a familiar opponent in the NL East. His new club showed up to Citizens Bank Park two days after the transaction, andFormer Marlin terrified the Phillies and stole the show. Jazz The Phillies may have regretted passing on Chisholm Jr. at the trade deadline. The Phillies have “zero interest” in acquiring Chisholm to improve their dismal outfield predicament, according to Bob Nightengale of USA Today. Perhaps the Phillies brass was questioning themselves after his recent performance against them. It’s unlikely that he was aware of the trade deadline or would have given a damn if he had. However, it was evident that the 26-year-old former All-Star had a spark. It’s conceivable that he was able to step it up merely by getting away from the miserable Marlins.
For whatever reason, he was all over the Phillies now that he was back. Over the course of the three games, Chisholm went 6-for-14. In back-to-back double-dinger games, he scored five times, drove in eight, and hit four home runs. According to MLB’s Bryan Hoch, he became the first Yankees player to blast four home runs in his first three games with the venerable team. Not only that, but he accomplished all of that while taking on a new role. The center fielder, who was formerly a second baseman, started his career playing third base. It’s not as if he has ever performed well at Citizens Bank Park. He’s never played like that, but it’s undoubtedly a more comfortable setting than the ballparks he’ll visit while playing in the AL East.
Undoubtedly, the Phillies are pleased with their acquisition of Austin Hays from the Orioles; nevertheless, Chisholm’s recent outburst, which ignited the Yankees to a series victory, served as a reminder to both them and the baseball community of his extraordinary talent.
