The match Chicago Cubs vs San Francisco Giants will take place at Wrigley Field in Chicago on September 11 at 8:08 PM ET.
Chicago Cubs vs San Francisco Giants will take place at Wrigley Field in another round of MLB action. Though there`s plenty left to be decided in the Phillies` 2022 season, it`s never too early to speculate about what the club might have in store for the winter or for the 2023 campaign. To this end, Peter Abraham of The Boston Globe writes that “the Phillies will be eager suitors” for Xander Bogaerts, provided that Bogaerts (as expected) opts out of his contract with the Red Sox.
Reports already surfaced in June that Philadelphia would be targeting the shortstop position this winter, with the Phils looking to make a splash in a free agent class that is expected to include the likes of Bogaerts, Trea Turner, Dansby Swanson, and Carlos Correa. Bogaerts and Correa are seen as virtual locks to exercise opt-out clauses, and Turner and Swanson are both scheduled to hit the open market.

Bogaerts` talent makes him a natural target for any team that wants a big upgrade at shortstop, and the Phillies are perhaps an even more logical fit due to the past ties between Bogaerts and president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski. After all, Dombrowski was the president of baseball operations in Boston when the Bogaerts signed their current contract — a six-year extension worth $120 million, including a postseason release clause. and was set to sign off with $60 million left on the table, but there was no doubt that he would easily beat that number on the open market.
