Imagining a Phillies-Orioles blockbuster
June 27: The Phillies are among the teams rumored to be interested in the Orioles' Manny Machado, and The Athletic's Jim Bowden suggests Philadelphia should make a big splash by swinging a trade for both Machado and All-Star closer Zach Britton.
As Bowden writes, Philadelphia is a logical landing spot for Machado and Britton as free agents this offseason, so why not acquire them now with the intention of making a 2018 postseason run and then hope both re-sign?
While the Phillies are unlikely to make top prospect Sixto Sanchez (RHP) available, Bowden thinks an offer of infielder J.P. Crawford, No. 2 prospect Adonis Medina (RHP), No. 22 prospect Cole Irvin (LHP) and No. 27 prospect Connor Seabold (RHP) could be enough to get a deal done with Baltimore.
