06/30: Report: Phillies Have Scouted Chien-Ming Wang
Posted by: Patrick
Jim Salisbury of The Philadelphia Inquirer talks about potential buyers and sellers at the trade deadline. Of interest, he says:
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.

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.
