The Phillies<\/a> made a deal with the Chicago White Sox today, grabbing a right handed bat for their outfield.<\/p>\n

Acquiring Hill will help shore up some major league outfield depth that the team really doesn\u2019t have much of at the moment. This season with the White Sox, he has played all three outfield positions at least 13 times. He\u2019s very fast and has a very good arm from the spots, giving about average value with the glove.<\/p>\n

With the bat? That\u2019s a different story. His overall line is .213\/.284\/.375 is nothing that you really want to get worked up about until you dig a little deeper into that line. It\u2019s the splits that are the thing that probably drew in the Phillies to want to trade for him.<\/p>\n

RHP: 31 PA, .148\/.258\/.148, 0 HR, 2 RBI
LHP: 59 PA, .245\/.298\/.491, 4 HR, 6 RBI<\/p>\n

Folks, this isn\u2019t a trade for a bat to have any kind of impact. This is a trade that looks to be setting up a platoon for something. What that is is pure speculation at this point. Maybe Adolis Garcia<\/a> is more injured than initially thought. Maybe the team is getting a little concerned with Justin Crawford\u2019s performance at the plate. That kind of news is probably sure to follow.<\/p>\n

In return, the Phillies moved on from Dylan Campbell, who currently has a 75 wRC+ in Reading at the moment, and Jose Colmenares, who is having a better season in Jersey Shore (124 wRC+), but is also 24 years old and still playing at that level.<\/p>\n
