## Resource

Brad Keller’s season-ending UCL tear throws the Phillies’ bullpen plans into chaos, forcing a frantic trade deadline scramble. With depth thin and prospects limited, the team’s eyes turn to internal gems like 22-year-old strikeout machine Gage Wood and rising Double-A ace Alex McFarlane — both potential bullpen answers, but with steep trade-offs. The pressure’s on to fix the pen before the deadline, or risk another playoff collapse. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
