Phillies trade rumors have been rampant this month, and the latest report has them talking with the Baltimore Orioles regarding outfielder Adam Jones.
Jon Paul Morosi of MLB Network reported on the program Wednesday morning that the Phillies are among a handful of teams calling the Orioles regarding Jones. Baltimore, having recently dealt Zach Britton to the Yankees, is open for business as they finally begin a rebuild.
Baltimore is very familiar with the Phillies farm system having negotiated deals involving Britton and Manny Machado. The Phillies front office is also familiar with Jones having worked with him when most of the team officials were in Baltimore.
