Summary
The Phillies are eyeing a blockbuster move before the trade deadline: adding Aroldis Chapman to their already elite bullpen. While they’ve already got reliable closer Jhoan Duran, bringing in Chapman—whose 90% trade likelihood and stellar ERA this season make him a prime target—could create a fearsome late-inning duo. With Duran and Chapman both elite, the Phillies could flex bullpen depth, use Chapman as a lights-out setup man, and lock down close games with unmatched dominance. Strong starting pitching from Wheeler and Sanchez only makes this upgrade more impactful, turning late-inning matchups into near-impossible wins.
