The Texas Rangers non-tendered the two-time All-Star in November after he batted .227 with a career lows in home runs (19) and RBIs (75) over 135 games in 2025.
It was the second straight season of declining production from Garcia, 32, who set career highs with 39 home runs and 107 RBIs for the World Series champion Rangers in 2023.
Garcia is a career .237 hitter with 141 homers, 459 RBIs and 74 stolen bases in 766 games with the St. Louis Cardinals (2018) and Rangers (2020-25). He made the American League All-Star teams in 2021 and 2023 and won a Gold Glove in right field in 2023.
The Phillies are expected to either trade or release current right fielder Nick Castellanos before spring training, per The Athletic. The deal with Garcia is pending the results of a physical.
