If the Minnesota Twins become MLB Trade Deadline sellers, would their setup man with elite stuff, Griffin Jax, become available? The Philadelphia Phillies and Dave Dombrowski would CERTAINLY be interested, and likely would move big time prospect to acquire Jax.

With the MLB Trade Deadline just under a month away, the Philadelphia Phillies will likely be buyers, once again, this season. They’ll likely look to move prospects to acquire proven MLB talent to make a run into the Postseason, and hopefully, a World Series run. But there are 3 prospects that the Phillies should NOT trade this Deadline.

After being rained out last night, the Philadelphia Phillies and San Diego Padres will play a day/night double header, beginning with this afternoon’s regularly scheduled game. Mick Abel gets the ball in Game 1 vs former Phillie, Nick Pivetta. Then, tonight, it’s Cristopher Sanchez vs Dylan Cease. The Phillies look to take consecutive series, as we get closer to the All Star Break and the MLB Trade Deadline.

Zack Wheeler, Cristopher Sanchez and Ranger Suarez pitch like aces all month long and propel the Philadelphia Phillies in the month of June when the offense was struggling with consistency. Could all three starting pitchers be in the Cy Young conversation this season?

Ranger Suarez was excellent ONCE AGAIN, as Philadelphia Phillies take rubber match and take 2/3 in the weekend series against Spencer Strider and the Atlanta Braves. Ranger Suarez impending free agency looms large, and it's becoming more and more expensive to re-sign Ranger in the offseason. Up next for the Phillies, it's a 3-game series with the San Diego Padres.

The Philadelphia Phillies need offensive pop in the worst way. Only Kyle Schwarber is on pace to hit more than 20 homeruns this season. Could Dave Dombrowski and the Phillies look to a familiar trade partner in the Los Angeles Angels to improve the offensive power? Do Taylor Ward or Jo Adell make sense in a trade this MLB Trade Deadline?

The Philadelphia Phillies were swept by the Houston Astros in a three game series, scoring just ONE run over 27 innings. The starting pitching was EXCELLENT, giving up just 3 earned runs, and Phillies pitching gave up just 5 all series, but the offense was non-existent. Up next, three games with the Atlanta Braves. Plus, could Dave Dombrowski target a power bat from the Los Angeles Angels at the Trade Deadline?

Ranger Suarez was masterful last night, but the Philadelphia Phillies offense was shutout by Framber Valdez, as the Houston Astros take game one of the series 1-0. Plus, Jayson Stark and The Athletic discusses the approach the Phillies will take at the Trade Deadline this year, and how the Phillies bullpen will stack up in the Postseason. And, ESPN ranked the Top 50 MLB Trade Deadline candidates. Who did they link to the Phillies?

Since returning from the IL in early May, Brandon Marsh has felt like a much different hitter. The Phillies are hoping his productivity can continue, and he can help solidify the centerfield position as we get closer to the MLB Trade Deadline.

When the Philadelphia Phillies needed him, Jesus Luzardo stepped up in a HUGE way tossing 6.2 shutout innings against the New York Mets to help the Phillies take 2/3 in the series from New York. The Phillies now sit alone atop the NL East standings. Plus, Otto Kemp is here to stay, even if it means he'll have to play 4 different positions.
