The Phillies need a third baseman, however, or at least an offensive player who can come in and make an impact for them, which is why the two sides have been linked together a few times now.However, one writer doesn’t believe the Phillies will have a chance to land him because his potential no-trade clause is an issue.“That’s unfortunate because if Chapman is not willing to waive his no-trade clause unless it is to a west coast team, that takes away some of the team’s that make the most sense on paper as trade partners like the New York Yankees o Philadelphia Phillies,” Nick San Miguel wrote.To be completely honest, even if the Phillies are interested in Chapman, I hope he stops the deal and says that he doesn’t want to play in Philadelphia.To me, this would be a worst-case-scenario type of addition, as he’s truly not the player that Philadelphia needs right now. I get the appeal because of his name, but this is not a guy I’d want in Philadelphia if I were the Phillies.Yankees given bad news on $151M All-Star trade deadline targetGleyber Torres trade noise should be of interest to YankeesMets’ Francisco Lindor trade deadline plan should anger fansMets trade deadline plans could spoil Cubs chances of making postseasonMets’ David Stearns doubles down on trade deadline plans      ​Read More
