The Philadelphia Phillies are facing significant challenges as the trade deadline approaches, particularly in the outfield and bullpen. Their defensive struggles and underperforming hitters have led to a glaring need for reinforcements. One potential solution could be found in a bold trade proposal by insider Jim Bowden, who suggests sending promising pitcher Mick Abel to the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for star reliever Félix Bautista and center fielder Cedric Mullins. Mullins, an elite defender with a power bat, is set to become a free agent after the season, while Bautista has shown strong promise after recovering from Tommy John surgery, boasting a 3.04 ERA this season. The move could help the Phillies address their urgent needs while allowing the Orioles to acquire controllable young pitching talent in Abel.
