The Phillies have been one of the most aggressive teams in baseball this winter — insofar as there have been any aggressive teams in baseball this winter — and they made their biggest move last week in trading for J.T. Realmuto. It seemed likely after they made that move that more money would be spent and more big deals would be made. Well, we are still waiting for that complimentary Bryce Harper/Manny Machado contract, but they have spent some more money on the players they already have. That would be Aaron Nola, who would have been a Cy Young contender last year if Jacob deGrom was human.
