The Phillies optioned Johan Rojas to Triple-A and placed Daniel Robert on the IL to make room for newly acquired Harrison Bader and Jhoan Duran.

Closer Jhoan Duran, outfielder Harrison Bader acquired from Minnesota Twins at MLB trade deadline expected to boost Phillies' World Series chances.

The Minnesota Twins have dealt closer Jhoan Duran to the Philadelphia Phillies, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan. Reportedly going back to Minnesota are catching prospect Eduardo Tait and pitching prospect Mick Abel, the Phillies' No. 4 and No. 6 prospects on the MLB Pipeline rankings.

The Minnesota Twins were perhaps the biggest sellers in the MLB at the annual trade deadline. The Twins started slow, trading Chris Paddack and Jhoan Duran prior to Thursday. Then the sale began. Minnesota shipped off eight other players on the final day.
