Phillies Trade Candidates Narrowing as Deadline Approaches
A new report by USA Today’s Bob Nightengale details the Philadelphia Phillies’ narrowing options for trade candidates. This comes as the July 30 trade deadline is quickly approaching. It has been widely reported that the Phillies want a right-handed outfield bat to platoon with Brandon Marsh in left field. This is because Marsh struggles against left-handed pitching. In 49 at-bats against left-handed pitchers this season, he has a .378 OPS and a 10 wRC+. Some of the names mentioned by other reporters for this role were ruled out by Nightengale. While Matt Gelb of The Athletic has stated that team control is not a factor, someone on an expiring contract is likely to fill this role.

Eagles News: Jalen Hurts is “not yet a consistent full-field reader”
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles links ... Why is this a problem in Hurts’ case? Because he is not yet a consistent full-field reader. He can be late working through his progressions, and a disproportionate number of his negative plays last season came when he was late to throw the ball with anticipation, he made the wrong read, or both. Point guards need offenses with designed openings to make the most of their distributive skills. Moore has already been meeting with Hurts regarding these issues, and the process of marrying everything good together, while avoiding the things that still need development while they’re still developing, are underway. “So far, really it’s focused on how he processes the game and just kind of the classroom aspect of it, and we’re beginning the field process of really getting out on the field and being able to do this thing,” Moore said. “I’ve really enjoyed our conversations. I think he’s a really smart player. He has a great feel for this game. The more conversation we have, the more we get to make these adjustments and build off of this thing. Jalen’s one of the premier quarterbacks in this league for a reason. You see it on film previously, but obviously getting on the field now, you’re certainly seeing it.”
