What happened: Philadelphia's trade deadline wish list continues to grow, according to Yahoo Sports. The Phillies host the Mets Thursday, a game that had not started as of the latest check, with Philadelphia leading their season series 2-1.
Why it matters: The Phillies enter the stretch run leaning on a bullpen that has posted an 8.05 ERA in July, tied for the second-most walks in MLB, a factor fueling the front office's search for reinforcements before the deadline. Philadelphia has won two straight and sits at 47-41 on the season.
By the numbers: Phillies: 47-41 this season, WWLWL over their last five, current streak W2. Bullpen ERA in July: 8.05, second-most walks in MLB.
