Bohm fights to reclaim $528K from parents as finances dispute with Phillies intensifies

Alec Bohm’s lawyers have filed for a preliminary injunction to recover $528,618 allegedly withdrawn by his parents from a Bohm-linked brokerage account, part of a broader suit in which he seeks about $3 million for alleged mismanagement of his finances via LLCs; a Philadelphia judge gave the parents 10 days to respond and Bohm has asked to pause a Florida arbitration, pushing the dispute toward Philadelphia court action.

The 22-year-old star posted strong numbers in his first full season—25 homers, 67 steals, and a .259/.339/.471 line—and remains under team control with arbitration eligibility next year; the Reds indicated they’ll likely revisit extension talks this spring, with Boras advising the client.
