As the MLB trade deadline approaches, the Philadelphia Phillies are looking to bolster their team, particularly in the outfield. They have shown improvement recently, amassing an 8-2 record in their last ten games. However, with a competitive landscape in the National League East, the Phillies cannot solely rely on Johan Rojas, who has shown promise but lacks consistency. Attention has turned to potential trades, particularly involving Luis Robert Jr. from the Chicago White Sox, who may be available due to his disappointing performance thus far in 2025.
The other player to receive multiple votes was Luis Robert Jr. of the White Sox, who had been widely expected to be moved during the offseason.
Robert's disappointing 2024 season - he hit 14 homers with 35 RBIs and a .657 OPS in 100 games - didn't allow the White Sox to get the return they were seeking.
Although the 27-year-old is off to a slow start this season, he's tied for the MLB lead with 15 stolen bases and ranks among the league leaders in walks.
If there's one area of need, it continues to be in the outfield. Johan Rojas has played much better in recent weeks.
