Reds chances to sign Kyle Schwarber get subtle boost thanks to Phillies latest shift

Cincinnati Reds fans are undoubtedly refreshing their social media accounts every seven seconds as they await word on Kyle Schwarber's future. One of the most sought-after free agents on the market has been linked to the Reds for the past few weeks, but many MLB experts and pundits view Cincinnati as a long shot.

The latest news from MLB insider Jon Morosi, however, could be a good sign for the Reds. According to Morosi, the Philadelphia Phillies are among the teams who've checked in on Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Ketel Marte. Philadelphia is not among those listed on Marte's limited no-trade clause, meaning if the Phillies and D-backs worked out a deal, the All-Star second baseman could do nothing to stop it.
