Latest news and updates about the Phillies
The Texas Rangers scored three runs but the Philadelphia Phillies scored five runs. The last time the Rangers began a season against the Phillies, they won the World Series. That’s certainly a positive omen as we begin this 2026 season journey. Those kinds of vibes didn’t last very long, however, as the Rangers whiffed on […]

It is Opening Day, y’all. Let’s do this. The lineup: Nimmo — RF Langford — CF Seager — SS Burger — 1B McCutchen — DH Jung — 3B […]
Usually, this question of the day part is where we ask a niche question about the team. Maybe it’s about someone’s approach at the plate, their recent work at that craft, or what you think about a player’s recent play. Today is simple. It being the Phillies’ home opener (and season opener), we’re looking for […]
Last year’s National League East race ended with the Phillies (96-66) winning their second consecutive division crown, while the Mets (83-79) and Braves (76-86) both underperformed expectations and missed the playoffs entirely. The Marlins (79-83), meanwhile, came close to .500 as they showed promise and play a key role in ending the Mets’ postseason dreams […]
We’ve finally made it to Opening Day everyone. No, we’re not counting whatever happened on Netflix last night. Sit back and get ready for a full slate of games today and for baseball to be on your television every day (except the All-Star break) until early November. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:

I don’t know if you’ve been down to Clearwater lately, but the programs smell weird. It’s like a pulpy garbage smell that is very distinct, and it’s continued since at least 2022 when I smelled it the first time. It must have something to do with the printing process, which is a guess I am […]
Opening Day is tonight. Kind of. Well, the Yankees and Giants play tonight, on Netflix, so I guess it’s Opening Night. And there will be stars on the broadcast. From other sports. Not baseball, mind you. There will be wrestling people. On Netflix. I hate MLB sometimes. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:
Cristopher Sanchez will be a member of the Phillies rotation until 2032. Jesus Luzardo is at least under team control until 2032. Aaron Nola will be in Philadelphia until 2030. Zack Wheeler is only under contract for two more seasons including this one. Andrew Painter is under control for six years. The Phillies believe in […]
Bryson Stott had himself a productive spring this year. The Phillies second baseman hit .366 with a 1.072 OPS across 16 Grapefruit League appearances. Spring training stats are not a surefire precursor to a successful season, but in this particular case, Stott’s success continues a trend of improved hitting dating back to last season. Stott […]
Phillies News: MLB News:
1962 White Sox third baseman Andy Carey, traded to Philadelphia on December 15, is instead dealt to the Los Angeles Dodgers after refusing to report to the Phillies. (The White Sox ended up sending pitcher Cal McLish to Philadelphia for minor league second baseman Lou Vassie to offset the Phillies not getting Carey.) Carey, just […]
Hey, when you feel good, you feel good. Zack Wheeler, someone who just threw to batters for the first time recently, is feeling good enough that the team will send him on a rehab assignment in Lehigh Valley. That’s certainly some very welcome news for the team. They won’t rush him at all, though they […]
The last Spring Training game is upon us and baseball will officially return to South Philadelphia in three days. Here are the lineups for the final matchup, let’s discuss! For the Phillies: For the Rays:
Opening Day is just days away, which means it’s almost time to officially turn the page on the 2025 season and move on to 2026. But until those games begin, the specter of 2025 will hang over everything and define the narratives for the start of the season. These are some of the numbers that […]
Now that the team has a roster, we can debate all the machinations that took place to get to that place. There were releases, returns and impending DFAs, but there is a roster in place. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:
Will Warren has set the tone this spring, and his final tune-up did not disappoint, as the Yankees defeated the Phillies 6-2 on Sunday afternoon. In what turned into an eventful first inning, Warren had to work around a leadoff double by Kyle Schwarber. After the extra-base hit, Warren leaned on both his stuff and […]
The Yankees are back in action today on the last sabbath before baseball stats start to matter again. The Bombers take on the Phillies in the final spring training game of the year at GMS Field in Tampa, and dare we label this one a potential pitching duel? Will Warren gets the ball for New […]
Friends, we have a roster. The 26th man was a debate for a few days, though maybe it never should have been. A few token appearances by Garrett Stubbs appears to have not swayed the team’s thinking as to who would ultimately make the team. There will be more bullpen shuffling once the members of […]
The Phillies will play their penultimate game of the 2026 Grapefruit League season on Sunday when they travel to Tampa to face the New York Yankees. Aaron Nola, coming off a strong performance in the WBC will get the ball in his final appearance before the regular season. The Yankees will go with righthander Will […]
A while ago, Cristopher Sanchez agreed to an extension with the Phillies that eventually made him incredibly underpaid. Now, the team has done right by their ace. According to reports, there is new money that is up to $107 million. That the team would choose to give Sanchez a new contract rather than continue to […]
This current Phillies era of being October regulars began in 2022, when they got in as the final NL Wild Card and then went on a run to the World Series before falling to the Astros. In the three years since, they’ve made the postseason every time and won the NL East in the last […]
There has been quite the amount of negativity surrounding the Phillies this offseason. It does not help that the players they ended up signing this offseason were the same ones that were on the team last year, a pot probably stirred a bit by national and local media focusing on the idea that they are […]
