The Philadelphia Phillies are looking to capitalize on a promising start to the season, currently sitting just 3.5 games behind the New York Mets and holding a 17-14 record. While they have faced some injuries, the team's overall health is a plus as they aim to find their rhythm. Manager Rob Thomson has hinted at the possibility of utilizing a six-man rotation, specifically regarding Taijuan Walker's role, although it appears unlikely. Walker has shown solid performance with a 2.78 ERA in 22.2 innings, but the team is open to trading him if it means enhancing their chances of competing for the National League East.
