The Phillies just pulled off a blockbuster trade deadline move, acquiring superstar second baseman Luis Arias and reliever Kalo Killian from the Giants in exchange for two pitching prospects.

Killian, despite a slightly inflated ERA, boasts elite strikeout numbers and adds crucial bullpen depth at age 29—especially with Brad Keller sidelined.

Now the big question: how will they fit Arias into the infield with Bryson Stott already entrenched?
