Phillies assess free agents Turnbull, Estevez, and Hoffman after 2024 season
The Philadelphia Phillies are evaluating their free agents after the 2024 season. Three players—Spencer Turnbull, Carlos Estevez, and Jeff Hoffman—are now free agents, having not received qualifying offers. The team faces challenges in retaining them due to payroll constraints. Spencer Turnbull had a solid season, posting a 3-0 record and a 2.65 ERA before an injury sidelined him. His versatility as both a starter and reliever makes him a valuable option for the Phillies' pitching staff. Carlos Estevez and Jeff Hoffman also had strong performances. Estevez recorded a 2.57 ERA with six saves, while Hoffman excelled with a 2.17 ERA and ten saves. Both could fill key roles in the bullpen if re-signed.
