The Philadelphia Phillies and Los Angeles Angels were trade partners earlier on Tuesday, but their biggest splash came right as closing time was being called at the 2022 MLB trade deadline.

The Phillies, meanwhile, were active at the trade deadline, adding Brandon Marsh, David Robertson, and Syndergaard while designating for assignment Jeurys Familia and Odubel Herrera. Let’s take a look at how each of these teams grade out on this one!
