Phillies acquire 29-year-old All-Star OF Austin Hays
The Philadelphia Phillies have acquired 29-year-old All-Star outfielder Austin Hays for the Baltimore Orioles for reliever Seranthony Dominguez and outfielder Cristian Pache, the team announced.
"He can play left field. This is the platoon partner for Brandon Marsh. I like it, I'm good with this. But here's what it tells me, there's another bigger move coming," Giglio reacted on the 94WIP Midday Show. "It feels like without Pache maybe [Johan] Rojas can move to the Pache role and get another center fielder in here...I think this is a precursor to another move."
Hays is hitting .328/.394/.500 against left-handed pitchers and will likely platoon in the outfield with Brandon Marsh.
Hays, who was an All-Star last year, is slashing .255/.316/.395 this season with three home runs and 14 RBI.
Hays, who makes $2.2 million, is under team control for the rest of 2024 and the 2025 season, as well.
