More on the Braves’ pursuit of an outfielder: according to a source, Atlanta has Michael A. Taylor on its radar. Taylor is in the first year of a two-year, $9 million deal with the Royals.
Taylor should absolutely be a Phillies primary target. No excuses.

I suspect we might see:

OUT: Munoz, Vierling
Other minor trades between now the deadline could affect things, too.
