The Phillies are looking to add an outfielder at the trade deadline and the NL East rival Nationals are preparing to sell a couple of intriguing outfield names. Could Lane Thomas or Jesse Winker wind up playing October baseball in Philadelphia?

The Braves brought Eddie Rosario back to Atlanta on a minor league deal and have already called him up to the big leagues. The move seems like a desperate signing, as Rosario isn't the same player he was when he played for the Braves previously.

The Phillies might need to package top prospect Aidan Miller in a trade deadline deal, but moving the young shortstop would be a mistake and a horrible idea for the future. The Phillies have other prospects to use in trades to ensure they keep Miller.
