The Phillies just pulled off a bold trade, acquiring second baseman Luis Arraez from the Giants in exchange for pitching prospects Ramon Marquez and Marty Gair. Arraez’s elite on-base skills (.360) are exactly what Philly needed to juice their offense. In his debut, interim manager Don Mattingly surprised fans by slotting Arraez cleanup behind Bryce Harper, who’s also making a rare move to right field. The lineup is completely reshuffled: Schwarber leads off, Turner bats second, Bohm takes first, Realmuto catches sixth, Marsh hits seventh, Stott eighth, and Crawford closes it out. Luzardo gets the start against Littell as the Phillies gamble on this new look to find their winning formula.
