Latest news and updates about the Phillies
With this afternoon’s game, the Orioles spring training season in Florida will be over. There are two more exhibition games to be played in Baltimore and in Washington, but those are not part of the Grapefruit League. The O’s bring a 10-13-3 record into this one, with two games that were canceled due to rain. […]
I have a busy Saturday, in front of leaving for Japan on Sunday, so getting this together Friday night. The Jays are in Bradenton, Florida, which is a very pretty town. But the game isn’t going to be on TV. Also the Jays Prospect are playing the Phillies prospects in Clearwater. And this game is […]
The team’s starting rotation is out and it should not be a surprise. Cristopher Sanchez will start the opener and will be followed by Aaron Nola and Jesus Luzardo. Anyone thinking Rob Thomson would keep the lefties back-to-back has not watched Thomson manage these past few years. Not there is much to gain from it, […]
The Good Phight will be previewing the 2026 season by going over each position on the field. We’ll talk about the players that will occupy them, the players behind them, their strengths and weaknesses and give a few takes about how we think the season will shake out. Had I told you that the Phillies […]

The Phillies also have Bryce Harper and Kyle […]

Less than one week remains until Phillies baseball is back. Nuf Ced. Phillies news Dylan Moore has exercised his opt-out. The Phillies must either add him to the 40-man within 48 hours (of his decision), or lose him. The Phillies have announced the new concessions items for fans to enjoy in 2026. This includes eight […]

With Opening Day just a week away, I thought it was time to dive into the schedule, specifically how hard it is to begin the season. The Nats open their season with matchups against the Cubs, Phillies and Dodgers. All three of those teams made the playoffs last year and project to be fearsome foes […]
There is a lot happening today for the Phillies. They have a regular game and a Breakout Game game(?). Let’s talk about them!
There are couple of really bad trades in Rays franchise history and the Philadelphia Phillies are responsible for at least two of the them. During the expansion draft, the Devil Rays sent Bobby Abreu to Philadelphia for Kevin Stocker. That move turned out badly, but at least Stocker was a competent shortstop for a bit […]
It won’t be until mid-April that the Atlanta Braves face the Philadelphia Phillies again. What started as a pretty underwhelming showcase today with the Braves turned into a late win (3-2) as the lineup couldn’t manage a hit to get on the board until the bottom of the seventh inning where Michael Harris II hit […]

It was almost Bedlam at the Bank again. Almost. Bryce Harper delivered a late-game blast to flip the script in a big moment, but this time around, his team didn’t end up finishing the job. Bryce Harper and Team USA fell just short of victory, with Team Venezuela (and beloved former Phillie Ranger Suarez) reaching […]
Alright, it’s time to make your official prediction for the season. We have talked all offseason long about the Phillies and the moves they made and didn’t make. There has been gnashing of teeth, rending of garments, all the marks of people unhappy with what they have accomplished in the player acquisition department. Now, we […]
Is there anything that goes together quite like the Phillies and St. Patrick’s Day? After all, “Phillie” kind of sounds like an Irish term, and the team mascot is green for some reason. The Phillies used to wear green uniforms on the holiday, but due to Nike’s rules limiting the number of uniforms, that tradition […]

Opening Day for the 2026 Texas Rangers is on March 26, 2026, at Philadelphia against the Phillies. Ten days away from Opening Day, it seems like we have a pretty good idea what the Opening Day roster is going to look like. On the position player side, things have seemed pretty well set since Andrew […]

Some years, when I reflect on this exercise, I feel pretty proud of myself. Other times, like now, I look back and wonder why anyone lets me communicate to anyone about the Philadelphia Phillies. Yes, it’s that time again for my yearly plunge into the crystal ball; my 10 bold Phillies predictions. But before we […]
This starts the final full week of spring training games, meaning we are a bit closer to real baseball action. For those that aren’t fans of the WBC, this is a positive thing as seeing these few games of still minor leaguers starting in regular positions is getting tiresome. We all reach this point each […]
Today’s recap is going to be a short and sweet, as this game was light on action and light on Braves’ roster candidates, as Jose Suarez got the start, to be followed by JR Ritchie. Suarez looked pretty good by his standards, striking out 3, walking 2, and accruing 10 whiffs over 4.0+ scoreless innings […]
