Are the Philadelphia Phillies really going to become sellers?
The Phillies are in last place in the N.L. East right now and things don’t look to get much better any time soon. Unless they sweep the Braves this weekend, I think they are going to be sellers at the trade deadline. Hunter Pence and Shane Victorino would probably spawn widespread interest, giving the Phillies likely a very solid return. Mike Fontenot, Ty Wigginton, Juan Pierre, Laynce Nix and Joe Blanton wold also likely garner interest from other teams. Like I said though, it all depends on how well or badly the Phillies play this weekend. Stay tuned.
