The 27-year-old center fielder is almost sure to get traded, and the Phillies are playing attention to his market.

After returning from a brief, two-game absence, Robert was hit with a pitch Sunday, adding another malady to the list in the run-up to the trade deadline.

The Philadelphia Phillies haven't been thought of as a trade favorite for Luis Robert Jr., but they certainly could use the White Sox star centerfielder. And one of the Phillies' pitchers, Tanner Banks, used to be Robert's teammate in Chicago.
