Did the Phillies Do Enough at the Trade Deadline?

The MLB Trade Deadline has come and gone and the Phillies made some big moves, acquiring Giants infielder Luis Arraez and relief pitcher Brooks Raley and Caleb Kilian. But was it enough to keep up with the Dodgers, Brewers, Cubs and the other top teams in the National League? On this episode of Hittin’ Season, hosts John Stolnis of The Good Phight, Liz Roscher, editor of SABR’s Baseball Research Journal, and Baseball Prospectus’ Justin Klugh recap a wild trade deadline day, Dave Dombrowski’s decision not to trade for a starting pitcher, and analyze fan reaction to the day’s events. Also, some conversation about Los Angeles somehow nabbing the best starting pitcher in the sport, Tarik Skubal, over the weekend.
