Not sure I agree with the premise that trading their best offensive player is the best way to fix the problem of the franchise, but it would not shock me if the Phillies were to unload Brown. He certainly has his issues with defense and staying healthy, but if he has 30 home run potential for a team that lacks power, what’s the point?
