I wonder who is positioning themselves to sign Keuchel and Kimbrel on June 1. From that day on, you don't have to give up a draft choice to sign either. I'd love to see the Phillies get both or at least Kimbrel.
Still a possibility neither sign after that - even if they do, I would think they will still end up with multi-year deals instead of a 3 month thing.
They may get multi-year deals. Two or three years. But probably not 6+ years they have been looking for.
Why not just hold out until July when a middling team is more likely to make a panic move?
Bryce Harper had a cannon shot of a throw home last night. Turned what looked like a regular sacrifice fly into a double play. Saved a run for the Phillies as they beat the Cubs 5-4 in 10 innings.

"Beat", more like stole. 1st base ump was on the Phils payroll.
That Cubs/Phillies series felt playoff-ish, which is weird to say in May.
