Phillies eye Aroldis Chapman as trade target from Red Sox

The Philadelphia Phillies are linked to Boston Red Sox closer Aroldis Chapman, who has a 0.44 ERA this season. With the MLB trade deadline approaching, ESPN's Jeff Passan and Kiley McDaniel identified the Phillies as potential suitors for Chapman, despite their current reliance on closer Jhoan Duran. Adding Chapman could strengthen the bullpen, giving the Phillies two elite late-inning options. However, sources suggest the team's trade resources may be better allocated elsewhere, particularly in search of an outfielder.
