One move down, more to come: Phillies bring back David Robertson

Title: One move down, how many more to come? David Robertson rejoins Phillies 

The Phillies are turning to an old friend to help their struggling bullpen.

They have agreed to a prorated, $16 million contract with right-hander David Robertson. The deal allowed the Phillies to keep their prospects for other trades, like for a big-time closer and maybe even a right-handed bat.

We discuss the Robertson deal, plus the need for a bat to protect Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber, especially with Alec Bohm sidelined the next few weeks.
