The Phillies have begun surveying the trade market for a back-end starter or swingman to bolster a rotation that’s been unstable after demoting rookie Andrew Painter; the top half of the rotation has been excellent, but Aaron Nola’s high ERA leaves the final spot wide open. With limited internal options and many teams selling around the deadline, Philadelphia is likely to monitor DFA moves and wait for clearer mid-rotation targets rather than rush a deal.
