Phillies Scouting Pitchers
Phillies Nation —
The Philadelphia Phillies will likely be buyers at the July 31 trade deadline. In the past, they may have been looking for a right-handed bat, but now the priority is pitching, startersand relievers. There are a few pitchers the Phillies scouted.

They have also looked at Jarod Washburn and Jason Marquis.
Phillies keeping an eye on Wang (just in case)
The Yankee Universe —
Interesting tidbit via MLBTR. Apparently, the Phillies have scouted Chien-Ming Wang in the hopes that the Yankees may make him available. Here’s what Jim Salisbury over at the Philidelphia Inquirer had to say about the Phillies’ search for a starting pitcher.
They want pitching. Starter or reliever? “Doesn’t matter. They’re looking for anything they can get,” a rival scout said. The Phils will get one. GM Ruben Amaro Jr. spent so much time talking to teams last week that it looks as if he has a BlackBerry growing out of his ear. The Phils have been all over Boston’s Brad Penny – “I’ve seen Penny three ...

Jim Salisbury of The Philadelphia Inquirer talks about potential buyers and sellers at the trade deadline. Of interest, he says: They want pitching. Starter or reliever? "Doesn't matter. They're looking for anything they can get," a rival scout said. The Phils will get one. ... The Phils have even scouted Chien-Ming Wang, in case the Yankees make him available. It's hard to see that happening just because we shouldn't give up on Wang and it's simply a bad time to trade him. In the right deal, sure, but the right deal isn't likely to be offered. Via ...
Report: Phillies Scouted Wang
Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest —
Interesting piece of information out of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
They want pitching. Starter or reliever? “Doesn’t matter. They’re looking for anything they can get,” a rival scout said. The Phils will get one. … The Phils have even scouted Chien-Ming Wang, in case the Yankees make him available.
The big question I have is, what would the Phils have to offer in exchange? The only thing I could think of is a right handed bat, but we all know they wouldn’t part with Jayson Werth. Bullpen? Not sure if Chad Durbin would be what the Yanks are looking for. Sounds like there is nothing here.
Give an assist to ...
