The Philadelphia Phillies hit a new low on Tuesday, firing manager Rob Thomson. Amid a 9-19 record, the team is definitely not out of the playoff race. However, their struggles have hit home, stirring changes and making them happen. More yet may be in store, particularly with starting 3rd baseman, Alec Bohm. He very well may be traded in the final year of his contract, and today, we explore one such scenario in which he lands with the Boston Red Sox.

Fantasy Baseball Impact

Entering the fantasy baseball season, Bohm was the 3B24. That made him a low-end starter, if not a solid bench item. However, Bohm now sits as the 3B34 in fantasy baseball, recording a subpar .143 batting average, .412, and 1 total home run.

In the prior two seasons, Bohm has performed to a .280 or higher batting average. He has been a very solid, middling 3rd baseman in MLB and fantasy baseball. Yet, his stats are cut in half this season to date.

The hope would be that a change of scenery may help Bohm. His floor is reached right now, and so the only way shall be up. In Boston, he will contest Caleb Durbin for the 3rd base starting job. He will also steal time from Isaiah Kiner-Falefa on the bench as the utility infielder. Likely, Bohm would start a ton, whether at 3rd base or as the designated hitter. His ranking will be that of a solid bench player in fantasy baseball, back to his mid-20s ranking at his position.
