PHILADELPHIA — Bryson Stott pointed out to the bullpen, as is the Phillies’ custom when one of them hits a home run. But he might as well have pointed to the owners’ box. Or the general manager’s suite.
A week from the trade deadline, it’s their turn to step up.
Dave Dombrowski said as much Monday. A few hours before Stott’s big hit, a three-run homer against tough Atlanta Braves lefty A.J. Minter in the eighth inning of a come-from-behind 6-4 victory, the Phillies president of baseball operations sat in the dugout at Citizens Bank Park and said he’s looking to add to the roster before 6 p.m. next Tuesday.
