Phils agree to deal with Smyly, showing interest in Stroman
July 19: In need of rotation help, the Phillies have taken a flier on Drew
Smyly, agreeing to a contract with the veteran left-hander, a source told
MLB.com's Todd Zolecki. The club has not confirmed the deal.
Smyly posted an 8.42 ERA over 51 1/3 innings with the Rangers this season
after missing all of 2017 and '18 while recovering from Tommy John surgery,
so this move doesn't necessarily solve Philadelphia's pitching problems.

However, there's enough time left before the Trade Deadline for Smyly to make
multiple starts, giving the Phillies a chance to see if he is indeed the
answer. In the meantime, Philadelphia will likely continue to eye potential
additions.
According to MLB.com's Jon Paul Morosi, the Phillies have shown interest in
Blue Jays right-hander Marcus Stroman (controllable through 2020), who is
scheduled to start Friday against the Tigers in Detroit. Per Morosi,
Stroman's start is expected to be attended by a large gathering of scouts.

Meanwhile, Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports that the club has
spoken to the Rangers about Mike Minor (signed for $9.83 million in 2020),
the Tigers about Matthew Boyd (controllable through 2022) and the Giants
about free-agent-to-be Madison Bumgarner. The possibility of dealing for the
D-backs' Zack Greinke also has been kicked around. Given his contract,
Greinke likely would cost the Phillies less than the others in terms of
prospects.

Greinke is in the midst of a six-year, $206.5 million deal that goes through
the 2021 season. However, there is $62.5 million in deferred money that will
be paid in annual installments of $12.5 million from 2022 through 2026. So
even though his “salary” for this season is $31.5 million, roughly a third
of that is deferred, and he’s actually taking home $21 million for 2019.
Therefore, Greinke is owed the prorated portion of his $21 million salary for
2019, as well as what’s left of the final two years of the deal, which comes
out to $112.5 million (including deferred payments) when you also include two
$3 million bonus payments he is still owed, as well as a $2 million trade
bonus.

July 19: The Twins are looking to add both a starter and a reliever before
the Trade Deadline on July 31, and they appear to be casting a wide net in
that search.
Sources told MLB.com's Jon Paul Morosi that Minnesota has inquired about the
Tigers' Matthew Boyd and Shane Greene. Morosi also reports that the club had
a top talent evaluator in San Francisco for Thursday's matchup between the
Giants' Madison Bumgarner and the Mets' Noah Syndergaard. The Twins have
interest in San Francisco's bullpen arms as well, per Morosi
The Minneapolis Star Tribune's LaVelle E. Neal III reported earlier this
month that the Twins' top three prospects
