The latest Phillies trade rumor has picked up after, according to MLB.com’s Bill Chastain, the club took in Wednesday night’s Rays/Marlins game.
Both clubs are likely sellers at the deadline with Miami 17 games below .500 and the Rays playing .500 baseball in a division dominated by the Yankees and Red Sox. Philadelphia, Boston, Atlanta, and the Chicago Cubs were all on hand in Miami with three weeks until the MLB Trade Deadline.
Grabbing the most attention in that game was Rays starter Nathan Eovaldi, who missed all of last season following Tommy John surgery. He’s on his fourth club in seven seasons, bouncing from the Dodgers, Yankees, Marlins, and now Rays.
