The Philadelphia Phillies decided they came to play on this west coast trip featuring the Seattle Mariners and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Two difficult teams to go up against that sport great pitching and lineups. However, the Phils managed to win a series in the “Coffee Capital of the World” and almost achieved a four-game series sweep in Hollywood for …

The Phillies flew out west to begin a seven-game road trip starting on Monday. The trip included three games against the Seattle Mariners and now four with the Los Angeles Dodgers. They began the trip with a 9-0 win on Monday night. They followed that with a 5-4 loss on Tuesday. They wrapped up the series with a 4-2 win …

Setting   The Phillies managed to crawl out of April with a .500 record, going 11-11, and currently sit in third place in the NL East. Truthfully, this is not where the City of Brotherly Love wants to see the boys in the red pinstripes at this point in the season, but there should not be cause for concern just …

The Philadelphia Phillies are struggling. They have lost two of three to the Milwaukee Brewers. Both Saturday and Sunday’s games were winnable, but this line-up is not hitting. The Phillies infield situation is in shambles.    The Phightin’ Phils are not fighting at all. They play with no energy at all, and it shows.    There is no easy way …

The Philadelphia Phillies claimed their first win over the Miami Marlins, only to suffer another loss in the finale with Zack Wheeler on the mound. The Phillies moved to 4-6 in the first 10-games of the season. They find themselves in fourth place in the NL East.  Unfortunately, the Phils are handling their growing pains as anyone else would, which …

The Phillies came into the 2022 season expecting to be a top-flight offense. Six games into the season, they’ve been mediocre. Through six games, they’re averaging 4.2 runs per game. Bryce Harper has arguably been the most disappointing of the entire lineup at this point. After they lit up Oakland on Opening Day, they scored 4, 1, 5, 0, and …

The Phillies Opening Day roster is pretty much set now. Mickey Moniak and Bryson Stott, who both had monster Springs, presumably have both made the team. Alec Bohm and Matt Vierling, who had less spectacular Springs, also made the team.  Vierling is not exactly a surprise as Joe Giardi had announced prior to today that the Phillies would employ a …

Playoffs, nothing less. The Phillies have an absolutely loaded offense. Every guy, 1-6, is capable of doing serious damage wherever they are in that order. The defense is going to be bad, sometimes to the point where we have to laugh about it. But, the offense should definitely make up for it. The Phillies, in order to make the playoffs, …

The Phillies have signed free agent OF/1B Kyle Schwarber to a 4-year/$79m contract. Schwarber adds championship experience and has been to the playoffs multiple times throughout his career. Schwarber also provides power from the left side as well as a sure-fire leadoff hitter for Joe Girardi. If the Phillies are done signing free agents now and don’t make any trades, …

The Atlanta Braves are coming off a World Series championship and going to get two stars back from injury. Ronald Acuna Jr, who many believe is a top-three player in baseball behind Mike Trout and Mookie Betts, is hoping to be ready for Opening Day after suffering a torn ACL last summer. Mike Soroka, coming off two torn Achilles tendons …
