Three Phillies players named All-MLB Team finalists

Finalists for the 2020 All-MLB Team were announced last Sunday. Tonight, MLB Network will reveal this year’s official All-MLB Team. This year will mark the second annual selection, which recognizes the top performers in the MLB during the regular season.

Like 2019, the All-MLB Team will be split into two teams, first and second, with one infield player, three outfielders, five starting pitchers, and two relievers selected to each team. Voting started in early November with 50% coming from the fans and 50% from a panel of experts.

Three Phillies players are included as finalists. Catcher JT Realmuto, outfielder Bryce Harper, and pitcher Aaron Nola. Third baseman Alec Bohm made the first round of selections but failed to reach the finals.

We’ll find out tonight at 7PM who makes the final teams. If I had to guess, we’re looking at three second team All-MLB members for the Philadelphia Phillies.

Maybe two, if you’re only considering Harper and Nola actual members of the Phillies.
