Phillies unexpected 'best' trade match is $113 million Giants outfielder
The Philadelphia Phillies are in dire need of help at three spots at the 2026 MLB trade deadline. A No. 4 or No. 5 starting pitcher, a left-handed reliever, and a right-handed hitting outfielder.While finding a reliever and a starter might not be too difficult, when it comes to adding a right-handed hitting outfielder, it's looking like it will be very difficult. For the Phillies, they might have to get a bit creative at the deadline.ESPN's Jeff Passan identified the outfielder who would be the "best match" for the Phillies this summer, and while it's a good player, it's an unexpected target in $113 million left-handed hitting Jung Hoo Lee of the San Francisco Giants.Phillies 'best match' at trade deadline is Jung Hoo Lee"Best match: Jung Hoo Lee, OF, San Francisco Giants," Passan writes.
