Charlie Morton’s up-and-down 2025 capped off a distinguished career

When Charlie Morton first debuted in MLB, the first Iron Man movie had just come out, Beyoncé and Jay-Z were getting hitched, Heath Ledger was winning acclaim as the Joker in The Dark Knight, and Phillies were on their way to being crowned World Series champions. Eighteen years is a long time, especially in baseball. […]

The Dodgers and Blue Jays proving stars drive titles

There’s a reason Dave Dombrowski said what he said. When Dombrowski spoke to reporters last week following another disappointing, early-round playoff defeat by the Phillies and questioned whether Bryce Harper would be able to return to the previous “elite” level of play he enjoyed during his first six seasons in Philadelphia, it wasn’t done out […]

2025 player review: Nolan Hoffman

Throughout the 2025 season, many Phillies fans mourned the absence of reliever Jeff Hoffman, who departed to the Blue Jays as a free agent. But the Phillies didn’t go Hoffmanless in 2025, as they (very briefly) had reliever Nolan Hoffman on the roster. If this name isn’t ringing a bell, that’s not surprising, as Hoffman […]

2025 player review: Garrett Stubbs

The team always knew that Garrett Stubbs would be with the Phillies in some capacity. His minor league option that he had available, couple with the one that Rafael Marchan did not, meant that he was going to the minor leagues for the season outside of a possible injury. But was there a higher purpose […]

How interested have you been in this World Series?

In the daily links piece before, I mentioned how much I’ve enjoyed this World Series that has played out. The blow out and the pitching duel had something for everyone to enjoy as far as how the games, but I wondered about other people. There are lots of Phillies fans that check out of baseball […]

Phillies news: Kyle Schwarber, Nick Castellanos, Olympics

The World Series shifts to Los Angeles today and I have to say: been a pretty good series thus far. Watching the Dodgers get their doors blown off is always fun, but I’m also one of those pitching duel aficionados that actually prefers those types of games to a 12-10 homer fest. I enjoyed Game […]

Will Smith powers the Dodgers offense in bounce back Game 2 victory

The Dodgers offense fired on all cylinders over their two-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds in the Wild Card series, but since then, they haven’t provided much to desire. The Dodgers were outscored by the Philadelphia Phillies 15-12 in the NLDS despite winning the series in four, and although they swept the Milwaukee Brewers in […]

Ranking the biggest Eagles villains of the 21st century

More than usual, I really want the Eagles to smash the Giants on Sunday. Losing to New York on Thursday Night Football in the Meadowlands two weeks ago, coupled with the Phillies getting eliminated from the postseason in humiliating fashion the same evening, made for one of the worst sports nights of my life. The […]

You think the Phillies need more changes

The other day, I posed a simple question to you. Do the Phillies need to go further with changes to the team in order to finally get to the summit of the game? The results: they are in. What did you say? That’s a whopping 79% of people that voted in this poll saying that […]

Mets Morning News: World Series begins, offseason decisions awaits

Meet the Mets Several long-tenured Mets players could be interesting trade candidates this offseason. MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo answered some questions about the Mets’ offseason outlook. Around the National League East Phillies ace Zack Wheeler is currently feeling no pain in the aftermath of his thoracic outlet surgery. Reynaldo López may well be a major factor […]

Should the Phillies trade the farm for Tarik Skubal?

It seems impossible that the Detroit Tigers would actually do it. A team that is a true World Series contender should never consider such a thing. Despite it lacking all common sense and defies instincts of self preservation, there apparently is a chance that the best pitcher in baseball, the soon-to-be 29-year-old left-handed flame-thrower Tarik […]

2025 Phillies player review: Nick Castellanos

“You’re not dreaming,” went a tweet that the Phillies put out on March 22, 2022. “Nick Castellanos is a Phillie”. All dreams give way to reality eventually, but the awakening isn’t always so harsh. Over four seasons with the Phillies, Nick Castellanos has provided some sterling moments but nothing resembling the transformative excellence that was […]

Should the Phillies explore a contract extension for Jesús Luzardo?

The Phillies made a bit of a surprise trade last offseason when they acquired Jesús Luzardo from the Miami Marlins in exchange for one of their top prospects in Starlyn Caba. The price for Luzardo wasn’t necessarily the surprise, but rather that the Phillies were acquiring another starting pitcher despite already boasting one of the […]

Phillies News: Silver Sluggers, Bryce Harper, Mike Schmidt

We’ve been given our first taste of the dead zone that is the majority of the MLB offseason these last few days, and it hasn’t been fun. We’re only guaranteed four more baseball games in 2025 before spending an entire winter dealing with outlandish trade ideas and fake accounts spreading false rumors. Let’s all try […]

2025 Phillies player review: Cal Stevenson

Toward end of the 2024 season, the Phillies called outfielder Cal Stevenson to the majors to serve as outfield depth. His stay with the major league club was largely nondescript, with most of his appearances coming as a defensive replacement. But he had one memorable game against the New York Mets in which he had […]
