Harper's offer to move back to the outfield could come into play in the future, including next offseason, when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will hit the market. The Phillies have several core players ( Kyle Schwarber, Ranger Suárez, JT Realmuto, etc.) and a lot of money coming off the books after this year, and could pursue Guerrero.

Bryce Harper told the Philadelphia Phillies he would approve of a position switch back into the outfield if the team acquires another slugger to play first base.

Philadelphia Phillies slugger Bryce Harper is preparing for a strong 2025 season. Harper’s dream is to win the World Series with the Phillies. He’s even ready to switch positions for the betterment of the team. The Phillies were one of the many teams rumored to be in on Pete Alonso.
