Phillies consider trading for Cy Young winner with Painter's workload concerns

The Philadelphia Phillies are exploring options to strengthen their starting rotation as they vie for a postseason spot. Under interim manager Don Mattingly, the team has shown improvement after a rough start to the season. With Andrew Painter's increased workload raising concerns, the Phillies may target former Cy Young winner Robbie Ray from the San Francisco Giants. Although the team has not expressed an urgent need for another starter, Ray's left-handed pitching could be advantageous during the playoffs. The trade deadline approaches, and president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski remains active in seeking upgrades.
