The Philadelphia Phillies will be among the teams pursuing closer Ryan Helsley, and former GM Jim Bowden believes this return could get the deal done.

MLB regular season was one of the most successful for the Philadelphia Phillies in franchise history. They won 95 games, their most since being victorious 102 times in 2011. It was the sixth most wins in a single-season in franchise history and 12th time they took home the National League East title.

Phillies bat boy Adam Crognale won the fan vote to represent the National League on the All-Star Ball Crew at Truist Park.

A few days ago, a report surfaced out of Pittsburgh from Noah Hiles of the Post-Gazette, noting that the Phillies were actively kicking the tires on a pair of Pirates relievers, Dennis Santana and David Bednar. Hiles goes on to mention that the interest has been there in Santana “for quite some time.”

It has been a tough start to the West Coast trip for the Philadelphia Phillies with back-to-back poor losses against the San Francisco Giants.

Jim Bowden of The Athletic believes the Philadelphia Phillies would turn down a hypothetical trade of Justin Crawford for Dennis Santana and David Bednar from the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Phillies recovered from Tuesday's devastation to take the final of the three-game series with a 13-0 thumping of the Giants. It eased the memory of losing on a three-run, inside-the-park walk-off home run the night before.

Bryce Harper homered and doubled three times, Jesús Luzardo struck out seven and gave up three hits in seven innings, and the Philadelphia Phillies kept Justin Verlander winless with a 13-0 rout of the San Francisco Giants.
