Shakeups in NL East could pave a way for the Phillies

On Tuesday, the Phillies had their biggest move of the offseason… and they didn’t move a muscle. Josh Donaldson left the NL East, signing with the Minnesota Twins.

It seems that the Atlanta Braves didn’t want to pay the hefty 4-years $92 million (even though $23 mill was exactly what they paid Donaldson last season). The Washington Nationals also seemed to run out of funds to sign the former AL MVP. They now run out an infield that includes 3 players over 33 years old (Kendrick, Cabrera, and Thames).
