Phillies rumors: Dave Dombrowski rival makes confident trade deadline prediction
The post Phillies rumors: Dave Dombrowski rival makes confident trade deadline prediction appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Philadelphia Phillies have been attempting to get the most out of their core for some time now, and one rival executive is expecting their front office to be particularly busy ahead of this summer's trade deadline. Advertisement A recent story from ESPN's Buster Olney highlighted Phillies president of baseball operations, Dave Dombrowski as one of the MLB executives under the most pressure. According to the insider, one of Dombrowski's contemporaries envisions Philadelphia being active. 'He's been through this plenty of times before,' one of his peers said. 'He'll make deals. He always does.' Philadelphia chose not to deal right-hander Andrew Painter last summer when Garret Crochet was available, but may choose to deal him now, given they have already added young arms such as Jesus Luzardo and Christopher Sanchez to their rotation over the past few years. Painter was recently promoted to Triple-A and could be an asset that helps Dombrowski grant the Phillies the needed bullpen help. One of the club's most effective relievers, Jose Alvarado, may return from his PED suspension before the regular season concludes, but will be ineligible for the postseason. Advertisement As a result, Philadelphia will likely need reinforcements to go along with Matt Strahm, Orion Kerkering, and others. The Phillies' bullpen currently holds a 4.50 ERA, one of the worst marks in the sport, and slightly worse than the middle-of-the-road 3.94 ERA that the group posted in 2024. Despite this, the Phillies were key contenders last season. They finished the campaign with a 95-67 record, good enough for a National League East crown. While they were dismantled by the Mets in the NLDS, the core of Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, and Trea Turner still holds the kind of postseason experience that could make for a special run. Dombrowski's sense of urgency could potentially raise the core's ceiling and help prevent another letdown this October. A solid bullpen is a key component of any championship run, especially in a crowded field such as this season's National League.

Spurs rumors: Shams jabs ‘body language police' after viral Kevin Durant trade moment
The post Spurs rumors: Shams jabs 'body language police' after viral Kevin Durant trade moment appeared first on ClutchPoints. The San Antonio Spurs are one of a handful of teams rumored to be interested in a trade for Kevin Durant. Former NBA star Iman Shumpert recently made the case as to why the 13-time All-Star is a great fit for the organization. Advertisement However, Shams Charania's body language during Shumpert's comments turned heads, leading to widespread speculation that a trade may not come to fruition. Charania glanced over to the camera awkwardly, as if it were an episode of 'The Office,' while Shumpert explained how he believes the Spurs should trade for Kevin Durant. The famed NBA insider, who works for ESPN, made an appearance on 'The Pat McAfee Show' on Tuesday to clear the air. Shams Charania claims that he was sort of soaking in his environment, attending the NBA Finals. It was the first time he's made an appearance like this for ESPN, and he told McAfee that he was looking for the camera he's supposed to look at when it's his turn to talk. 'What I start thinking about is this possible [Kevin Durant to the Spurs]? … I'm gathering my surroundings, my first time on the show. I gotta figure out, are they doing one shots; are they keeping it on us?' According to Charania, his Jim Halpert-like glance at the camera had no deeper meaning behind it. During his guest appearance on 'The Pat McAfee Show,' Charania didn't seem to be against the idea of the 36-year-old forward being traded to the Spurs. Advertisement However, he did explain how San Antonio may not be willing to give up the assets the Phoenix Suns are asking for to make the deal go through. The other teams rumored to be interested in trading for the four-time scoring champ include the Houston Rockets, Miami Heat, and Minnesota Timberwolves. Of those three teams, it's said that Kevin Durant has no interest in playing for Minnesota. So the Spurs very well could still be in the mix.
