“Whenever you make a splash for a high-caliber player, that means something,” Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber told reporters, according to MLB.com “Personally, I remember ‘16 when [the Cubs] traded for Aroldis Chapman. It just kind of lifted the spirits of everyone. And I feel like that’s going to be the same thing.”

The Phillies acquired elite closer Jhoan Duran from the Minnesota Twins in a blockbuster trade for Mick Abel and Eduardo Tait.
