What should be the Phillies’ Kyle Schwarber backup plan?

Kyle Schwarber had a historic season at a perfect time, as the 2025 MVP finalist is hitting the open market in free agency as arguably the second best available hitter behind Kyle Tucker. Most insiders agree that a reunion with the Phillies seems likely, but as we discussed yesterday with J.T. Realmuto, that is not […]

Eagles’ Nick Sirianni talks Packers’ roster, Micah Parsons

Coming off of his team’s bye week, Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni fielded many questions about new additions to his squad’s roster, including cornerbacks Jaire Alexander and Michael Carter II and pass-rushers Jaelan Phillips and Brandon Graham, but Sirianni did have a little time to talk about his team’s next opponent, the Green Bay […]

Friday Morning Fly By: Oh hey, Mike

*The Philadelphia Flyers won the hockey game. Matvei Michkov finally scored a second goal. And Travis Konecny scored a goal too. Sometimes, things are good. RECAP ! *Obviously heading into this season there was a ton of focus on the Flyers’ urgent need to improve their power play. So far, they’ve done it! But they’ve also REALLY improved the penalty kill. A lot. [ BSH ] *Speaking of improvement, turns out all of those folks yelling about putting Cam York on the power play over the la...

Takeaways: Flyers rally to 3-1 win over Predators, sweep road trip

Coming off of a gutsy shootout win on Tuesday in Montreal, the Flyers wrapped up their quick little road trip in Nashville tonight, and it was another strange game, but one which amounted to another big win for them. Bookended by pretty meaningful goals for Matvei Michkov and Travis Konecny, the Flyers delivered another bend-but-don’t-break type of game, coming away with a 3-1 win and a sweep of the road trip. Let’s get into it. The Basics First period: 1:44-Ryan O’Reilly (Forsberg, ...

Flyers activate Samuel Ersson from IR, return Jacob Gaucher to Phantoms

It’s been a relatively quiet week for the Flyers up to this point, but just as it was beginning to feel a little bit too quiet around here, the Flyers dropped a little bit of news on us, down to the wire before they rolling for tonight’s game in Nashville. Ahead of tonight’s game against the Predators, the Flyers announced that they’ve activated goaltender Samuel Ersson from IR, and loaned forward Jacob Gaucher back to Lehigh Valley to make room for that. Transaction: We've activated goal...

Two of the bigger pieces of business of the offseason were taken care of today. The Phillies gave a qualifying offer to both Kyle Schwarber and Ranger Suarez today.

Flyers @ Predators: How to watch, lineups, and gamethread

The Philadelphia Flyers are coming off one of the most exciting games of their young season after winning and losing and then winning again against the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre. And because of that powerful performance, head coach Rick Tocchet is going with the same lineup — an untouched roster to hopefully get another two points over the Nashville Predators. The last time these two teams met in this season was just a week ago and the Flyers earned a 4-1 win thanks to two goa...

Eagles open Willie Lampkin’s practice window

The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced two moves since Wednesday afternoon. Here’s an overview: Let’s sort through this news on a player-by-player basis. WILLIE LAMPKIN As a reminder, the Eagles claimed Lampkin off waivers from the Los Angeles Rams back on August 27. Two days later, they placed him on injured reserve. Now presumably healthy, Lampkin […]

Denver Barkey proves doubters wrong in breakout game for Phantoms

There is no other prospect in the Philadelphia Flyers system that needed to show that they belonged than Denver Barkey. The winger with all the motor in the world was able to play a prominent role on a dominant London Knights team in the OHL, but that was junior hockey. Barkey needed to make himself known within the first few weeks of turning pro and lacing up for the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. There were questions coming into this year. We have seen it so often that a player with Barkey’s 5...

2025 Player Review: Orion Kerkering

Let’s get the hard part out of the way: Kerkering made a terrible error in game four of the NLDS that ended the Phillies’ 2025 season. It was an atrocious way to go out, and still stings to think about. It’s been discussed more times than necessary, so we don’t need to go over it […]

Eagles News: Philadelphia has the third-easiest remaining schedule for wide receivers

Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … 2025 NFL midseason report: Questions and stats for each team – ESPNFantasy nugget: WRs A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith’s fantasy production and rapport with Hurts are well-documented. Neither has been consistent this season, but Philadelphia has the third-easiest remaining schedule for fantasy wide receivers. Both […]

What should be the Phillies’ J.T. Realmuto backup plan?

Earlier this week, our own Ethan Witte wrote about possible destinations for J.T. Realmuto in free agency. It’s possible that Realmuto could receive a three-year deal despite turning 35 before Opening Day 2026. Realmuto is not the same player he once was, and he is clearly in the beginning of his decline. He posted his […]

Flyers Rumors: Zegras Could Get Extended Earlier Than Expected

The Philadelphia Flyers have to be extremely pleased with the trade that brought Trevor Zegras to their team. It has paid off in a huge way so far, even if it is just 13 games into the season. He is leading the Flyers by a wide margin with 15 points already, and has four goals to go with that. Zegras has fit in from the first game and the Flyers are 7-5-1 on the season. To put it into perspective how much this change has helped Zegras, he had six goals and 15 points in 31 games two seasons ago...

Phillies news: José Alvarado, Kevin Long, Gage Wood

José Alvarado is officially returning to the Phillies, as the team did what Dave Dombrowski hinted at last month and picked up the lefty reliever’s $9M option for 2026. Alvarado had a nightmare 2025 that featured an 80-game suspension for performance enhancing drugs and an injury that ultimately cut his season short. Nevertheless, it makes […]
