The Milwaukee Brewers agreed to sign former Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins to a two-year, $34 million deal. The pact includes an opt-out after the first year.

Hoskins was drafted by the Phillies in the fifth round of the 2014 MLB draft and was a fan favorite during his time in Philadelphia. Hoskins made his MLB debut late in the 2017, and played 667 regular season games for the Phillies, hitting 148 home runs, with batting splits of .242/.353/.492/.846 in his career. He missed all of the 2023 season with the Phillies after he tore his ACL during spring training.
