The Phillies need to better utilize relievers in their pipeline
There are times when people can recognize a flaw in a roster. Some are easier to spot when considering the team, like “the Pirates need hitting”. The most common one that people point to is usually “not enough pitching” without really specifying what pitching is needed. It’s a catch-all phrase that really works in any […]
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 […]

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 […]

Phillies Exercise José Alvarado’s 2026 Option
The Phillies have reportedly exercised José Alvarado’s $9M option, officially returning him to the roster for 2026. Dave Dombrowski hinted that this move was likely back in his end of season press conference, so it doesn’t come as much of a surprise. Still, it is putting faith in Alvarado that he can return to form […]

3 Potential Trade Destinations for Flyers' Owen Tippett
The Philadelphia Flyers are a team to watch for an early season trade, as forward Owen Tippett's name has hit the trade rumor mill. Several reports have surfaced stating they could see Tippett being moved by the Flyers, as this is the final year of his contract in which he doesn't hold any trade protection. Tippett is off to a so-so start, scoring five goals and one assist in his first 13 games. He's owed $6.2 million through the 2032 season, and considering the cap is going way up the next fe...
Miami Dolphins sign linebacker to replace Jaelan Phillips
The Miami Dolphins made one trade during this season’s flurry of swaps that concluded with the NFL’s trade deadline on Tuesday afternoon — sending former first round pick EDGE rusher Jaelan Phillips to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a third round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. That move left the Dolphins with a […]
Howie Roseman talks through the Eagles’ deadline trades
The Eagles were active ahead of the NFL trade deadline, and among moves made earlier in the season, the team brought in three new players this past week. General Manager Howie Roseman spoke to reporters after the deadline, and explained some of their roster moves and their philosophy of not being afraid to fail. “Excited […]
What have we learned about the Eagles at the season midpoint?
If the playoffs started this week, which would be weird, the Eagles would be the #1 seed in the NFC. This is exactly where the team expected itself to be coming out of their bye. But what have we learned about the Eagles midway through the 2025 season? NFL free agency was a waste of […]
Trevor Zegras feeling confident, right at home in impressive start with Flyers
Trevor Zegras once again played a big part in a Philadelphia Flyers victory on Tuesday night. He had two power-play assists in the first period to put the team up 3-0, and came through in the shootout to help secure the victory. Zegras is now up to 15 points (4 goals, 11 assists) in his first 13 games with the Flyers, proving to be a great offseason addition for Danny Briere & Co. The 24-year-old forward needed a change of scenery, and he’s making the most of it in Philadelphia. ...
The Dallas Cowboys still don’t have a plan
Three decades of Cowboys schadenfreude continue on after the way Jerry Jones and co. laughably handled the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday. Following an Eagles bye week that saw every other NFC East team lose and the Birds jump to the No. 1 seed in the conference, Dallas’ deadline deal for former Jets defensive tackle […]
Flyers’ Vladar, Ersson showing mental toughness in some tough starts
In the Flyers’ first 13 games, the goaltending generally hasn’t been the crux of the team’s woes. The tandem of Dan Vladar and Sam Ersson (and now Aleksei Kolosov) have been holding Philadelphia in games for the most part. There have been a few clunkers but, generally, they have held up their end of the bargain. Prior to Wednesday’s slate of games, Vladar finds himself sixth in the league in goals against average (2.33) but has fallen to 15th now in terms of save percentage (.912), since ...

The Best Comeback in Years, Defense Steps Up Huge, A Lesson Learned, and Other Bulls Bullets
Fun Fact: The Chicago Bulls’ 24-point comeback win over the Philadelphia 76ers is the franchise’s largest since February 17, 2021, when they erased a 25-point deficit against the Detroit Pistons. Even Funner Fact: The Chicago Bulls are 7-1 and sit alone at the top of the Eastern Conference. The first of last night’s game was a good old-fashioned beatdown. They looked downright stunned by Philadelphia’s aggressiveness in transition and on the glass. They also had zero answers for Ty...
