The reason is twofold: By dealing Phillips the Reds rid themselves of a
contract worth $50 million over the next four years and they rid themselves
of a troublesome personality in the clubhouse.
紅人賣掉Phillips的話 不僅可以省錢 還丟掉一個休息室亂源
Phillips became persona non grata and probably sealed his fate in August when
he told Cincinnati Magazine that the front office lied to him, when he said
the club promised to talk to him about a contract extension before they
talked to Joey Votto, but extended Votto’s contract before they addressed
his.
Phillips在八月時不滿FO先跟Votto簽約的放話讓他變成不受歡迎人物

While Phillips is popular with fans through his Twitter account and his
willingness to sign autographs, he is not so popular in the clubhouse and is
thought of as a self-promoter.
雖然Phillips很受鄉民歡迎 但在休息區卻是另一回事
Said one man who is in the clubhouse every day, “You can’t tell by Brandon’
s face whether we won or lost, but you can tell if he went 0 for 4 or 2 for 4
no matter if we won or lost.”
某人: "你從Phillips表情看不出我們贏了還是輸了 但卻可以知道他今天是0-4或2-4"
