Fantasy Impact
Sherman writes the deal is "down to physical reviews". It sounds like Miami will be receiving Sixto Sanchez, Jorge Alfaro, and one other prospect in return for the 27-year-old backstop. It sounds like this trade could be done as early as Thursday afternoon. Realmuto would receive a bump in fantasy value if he winds up on the Phillies.
