Taking Jamie Moyer's Spot in Philly Is...

A trade could be near | The Phillies Zone | 07/20/2010:

"Those, presumably, are the names bandied about in the rumor mills over the last month. The Phillies have reportedly scouted Oakland pitcher Ben Sheets with two different scouts in the last month. Sheets pitched Tuesday for the A’s and would be in line to start Saturday.

Houston’s Roy Oswalt and Arizona’s Dan Haren are at the top of the list of available pitchers, but both could cost top prospect Domonic Brown, a deal the Phillies would not complete. They made sure to not include Brown in the Roy Halladay trade during the off-season."

If Jayson Werth is dealt for Oswalt, no one will prevent the Cliff Lee trade from being factored into the assessment of the deal.
