Reports: Phillies acquiring Jesús Luzardo from Marlins

The Phillies are adding to their starting rotation. According to multiple reports, the club is set to acquire left-handed starter Jesús Luzardo from the Marlins. Robert Murray of FanSided was first to report the news.

Per Matt Gelb of The Athletic, the Phillies are sending 19-year-old shortstop Starlyn Caba to Miami. Caba is considered one of the Phillies better prospects. Outfielder Emaarion Boyd is also heading to the Marlins, per Gelb, while the Phillies are getting minor-league catcher Paul McIntosh alongside Luzardo.

Luzardo, 27, has a career 4.29 ERA in 105 appearances (89 starts).
