The trade deadline approaches. The Phillies have many needs, which in no particular order include:
- starting pitching
- a center fielder
- another relief pitcher
- maybe another bat off the bench
There have been rumors out there, so as we see them, we’ll throw them up here to discuss. If you see one, post it in the comments and talk amongst yourselves. Let’s see what we can find.
But I've also heard from multiple teams that the #Phillies haven't just said no on their 2 top-100 pitching prospects, Painter & Abel, but also on Griff McGarry, Ben Brown & Logan O'Hoppe
