The Philadelphia Phillies are eight games out in the National League East and seemingly remain undecided about their stance as the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline approaches.
They are 49-53 and have been outscored by 59 runs this season.
Chase Utley is Philadelphia's most value trade option this month. He has been worth 3.2 WAR and it set for free agency this winter. He is hitting .283/.344/.515 with 13 home runs and 36 RBI in 73 games.
"Utley would be one of the most valuable players available on the market and while most trades at the deadline never amount to much, Utley could bring a legitimate prospect in return," David Schoenfield writes.
