The Phillies re-signed Realmuto to a three-year, $45 million contract Friday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The deal can max out at $60 million if Realmuto reaches all of his incentives. Realmuto turns 35 in March and has been in a steady decline both offensively and defensively, finishing the 2025 campaign with a .257/.315/.384 batting line and 12 home runs over 134 regular-season contests. However, while Realmuto's best days are behind him, he remains a quality hitter compared to most catchers, still has a great throwing arm and is well-liked in the Phillies' clubhouse.

Realmuto is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Realmuto will get the day off for the Phillies' regular-season finale. Assuming the catcher remains on the bench for the contest, he'll head into the playoffs with a .257/.315/.384 slash line, 12 home runs, 52 RBI and 57 runs scored across 549 plate appearances.

Realmuto (finger) will start at catcher and bat sixth Thursday against the Marlins, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Realmuto sat out Wednesday's contest after taking a foul ball off his right index finger Tuesday, and he's now ready to return to the starting nine after a day of rest. The 34-year-old backstop has been cold at the plate toward the end of the regular season, slashing .210/.288/.290 across 73 plate appearances since the beginning of the month.

Realmuto (finger) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's tilt against the Marlins, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Realmuto had to be lifted from Tuesday's game after taking a foul tip off his right index finger. X-rays came back negative and he should be fine, but Realmuto will sit out at least one contest. Rafael Marchan is catching and batting ninth for the Phillies on Wednesday.

Realmuto was removed from Tuesday's game against the Marlins with a right index finger contusion, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Realmuto took a foul ball off his hand while behind the plate during the ninth inning of Tuesday's contest, and he was later lifted for a pinch hitter. X-rays on his hand came back negative afterward, so he seems to have avoided severe damage, but the Phillies may give Rafael Marchan a start or two at catcher over the next couple of days to give Realmuto's finger time to heal.

Realmuto (illness) will start at catcher and bat fourth Wednesday against the Dodgers, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After sitting out Tuesday's contest due to an illness, Realmuto seems to be feeling well enough to return to the starting nine Wednesday. The 34-year-old backstop has been in a rough patch at the plate recently, slashing .233/.327/.326 across 52 plate appearances since the start of September.

Realmuto was unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers due to illness, Lochlahn March of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

It helps explain why Realmuto didn't pinch hit for Rafael Marchan when the game was tied 6-6 in the top of the ninth inning (Marchan launched a go-ahead, three-run homer, as it turned out). Consider Realmuto day-to-day, but with the National League East clinched and an off day looming Thursday, the Phillies might choose to hold their top catcher out until Friday's series opener in Arizona.

Realmuto isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Realmuto will retreat to the bench Tuesday after going 0-for-4 with a sacrifice fly in Monday's win. His absence will put Rafael Marchan behind the plate and in the ninth spot of Philadelphia's lineup.

Realmuto is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Realmuto will receive a well-earned day off after catching all four games this week against the Mets. Rafael Marchan will be behind the dish and batting ninth for the Phillies on Friday.

Realmuto is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Realmuto started the previous seven games and will receive Sunday off, which will put his modest four-game hit streak on hold, barring an appearance off the bench. Rafael Marchan is stepping in behind the plate for the series finale in Miami.
