Jim Thome is happy to be a Phillie, but said on Friday night that he will listen to trade interest as the July 31 deadline approaches. "I would have to sit down and listen," he said of a possible trade to an American League team, where the slugger could serve as a designated hitter. Thome was Philadelphia's DH in nine straight interleague games this month and hit .333 (12 for 36) with four homers, 14 RBIs and a 1.137 OPS.
