The Aug. 3 trade deadline is less than two weeks away, and the Phillies still need a bat, a reliever and a starter. What do they need the most? Honestly, you could make a strong argument for any one of the three. The Phillies have the lowest on-base percentage in Major League Baseball, so they need somebody who can get on base. The No. 5 starter’s spot has been a black hole since the beginning of the season, which is costing them wins and wearing out the bullpen. And with Brad Keller out for the season and José Alvarado struggling, who’s the bridge to Jhoan Duran in the ninth inning? We’ve got names to consider. More than 50, actually. Everybody from Mason Miller to Michael Wacha to Lane Thomas to Taylor Ward to A.J. Minter to Robbie Ray and more. This episode of The Phillies Show is powered by Monster Energy.
