The Philadelphia Phillies are keeping a close eye on Oakland Athletics left fielder Brent Rooker with this summer's trade deadline approaching at the end of July.

Luis Robert Jr. Unlikely To Be Traded

General managers around the league are skeptical as to whether any team will meet the Chicago White Sox's high asking price for oft-injured center fielder Luis Robert Jr. However, the market for right-handed starting pitcher Erick Fedde, who is 6-3 on the year with a 3.13 ERA, is expected to be robust leading up to […]
