A new day, a new Phillies rumor concerning acquiring a pitcher. In the last week alone, they have been linked to Robbie Ray and Zack Greinke of the Diamondbacks, Shane Greene and Matthew Boyd of the Tigers, former Phillie and current Royal Jake Diekman, and Mike Minor of the Rangers.
Now you can add Trevor Bauer of the Indians to that list. Jon Morosi of MLB.com reported Wednesday that Philadelphia and Cleveland had talks regarding a possible trade for Bauer.
Acquiring Bauer would be quite the move for Philadelphia despite their awkward positioning at the trade deadline.
