Good morning, McCoven!
Are you one of those people who likes to ponder alternate realities? All of those tiny flaps of butterfly wings that could have changed the whole world. Especially the awful ones? Well have I got a scenario for you! At this point in the 2015, the Giants were reportedly very interested in trading actual players, (players with value!), to the Phillies for Chase Utley.
Sources: #SFGiants and #Phillies in ongoing talks about Chase Utley trade. Stage is advanced enough that prospect names have been discussed.

Imagine that nightmare scenario as you sip your morning coffee.
