Kimbrel and Hader tied for Best closers in Mlb this year.
He is also signed thru next year, so Phillies need to get this done. No need to wait until July 30
If the Phillies had only 17 blown saves, which would still lead all baseball, they would be 45-37. And leading the Mets by a half game in the East.
Perspective. They are not a bad team. Just a team with the worst pen in Mlb. Get Kimbrel? Win the East
Also, they have the fifth highest payroll in Mlb, and third highest in the NL. So they are not waiting for the future. They are built to win today
