Phillies Interested In Two Mets Pitchers

The Philadelphia Phillies could use a starter for the backend of their rotation, and they are reportedly interested in Clay Holmes and Freddy Peralta of the New York Mets.

Matt Gelb of The Athletic mentioned the Phillies' interest in Peralta and Holmes, but adding a starter from the Mets may be more difficult for the Phillies than for other teams. Sure, the Mets are sellers, but they may still have reservations about helping a rival chase a World Series.
