If we’re to read the tea leave correctly, it looks like the next move the team makes (after the Realmuto sweepstakes conclude) is some kind of trade. There have been rumors of Alec Bohm being moved, of Matt Strahm being moved, of the team literally “begging” for Nick Castellanos to be taken off their hands. This is what I mean by the tea leaves.
That makes today’s question rather simple: what should that trade be if it happens to go down? We can think of which Phillies player would be headed out the door, or we can talk about which outsider we’d like to see coming this way. There has been a lot of talk about the team wanting to deal MLB talent for MLB talent, so that might serve as something of a guideline.
