Episode 127 of The Felske Files is brought to you by Anthony Arot and The Nash Wealth Management Group! Check them out here!

Baseball’s tradin’ season is officially upon us. For teams like the Phillies, the down-and-outers, it’s time to take a look at the inventory and see if there’s anything to take to the swap meet to make a buck off of.

For the Phillies, that involves a number of rental veterans, like relief pitcher Pat Neshek and infielder/outfielder Howie Kendrick. Both, if they can stay healthy, should fetch a decent price. In fact, it’s been reported there is already a standing offer for Neshek. Kendrick, unfortunately, might be looking at a stay on the disabled list because of a bad hamstring.

Less clear is what the Phillies plan to do with some of their younger Major League players.

Just how open are the Phils to trading Maikel Franco? Can GM Matt Klentak find a taker for Tommy Joseph. Would the Phillies consider dealing one or both of their double-play combo of Cesar Hernandez and/or Freddy Galvis?

Joining me to discuss that and more on Episode 127 of The Felske Files is managing editor of The Good Phight, Liz Roscher.
