I was in the newsroom when the trade came down.  Apparently, they've already 
named the two players, but it will come later - if the players are leaked 
hen
they could lose the prospects they want and get lesser players.  I expect 
Hammonds to be in the deal, as the Phillies have been holding out for him, 
which is why this deal wasn't done prior to the first trading deadline.
