Phillies Therapy: First-half MVPs, trade priorities

Matt Strahm? Craig Kimbrel? Nick Castellanos? Bryson Stott?

Paul Boye and The Athletic’s Matt Gelb discuss the most valuable Phillies of the first half of the season.

Boye and Gelb also discuss what the Phillies’ biggest needs are at the deadline. Right-handed power is priority No. 1, but should the Phillies take a big swing and acquire a top-of-the-rotation starter or look to add depth amid Cristopher Sánchez’s emergence as a reliable No. 5 starter?
