A few hours before Wednesday’s game, a Baltimore Orioles player discussed his longstanding relationship with several Phillies officials, including general manager Matt Klentak and team president Andy MacPhail, and the chances of a reunion with them later this month.

But they could show interest in Britton, too, depending on how well the two-time All-Star closer pitches in his comeback from a ruptured Achilles tendon.
