Small victories, large defeats.
It was inevitable, but that doesn’t mean it wouldn’t hurt. In case you missed it, Ranger Suárez has found a new home in Boston with a reported five year, $150M deal, leaving the Phillies after being in their organization since 2012. It’s bittersweet, as Suárez was beloved in Philadelphia, but it’s nice to see him […]

After the Philadelphia Eagles’ utterly predictable playoff loss on Sunday, one sentiment I commonly saw was that the Phillies needed to sign Bo Bichette to help raise the spirits of the city’s sports fans. It still hasn’t happened, but that’s not terribly surprising. As we’ve seen, baseball’s free agency period is far different than other […]

The walls are closing in on the Kansas City Royals. Usually, that’s a bad thing. But in this case, it’s not (at least, not if you’re a hitter). The Royals will be moving their fences in, as well as shortening them, in the hopes of making venerable Kauffman Stadium a more hitter-friendly park. Though not […]

Let’s assume, for a moment, that the Phillies were done adding to their team. Logic would tell us that either J.T. Realmuto or Bo Bichette is going to be wearing red pinstripes once the team begins 2026 play, but without a signature, they can’t be part of the equation just yet. Without Realmuto at least, […]

Last week, the Phillies hired Don Mattingly to be their bench coach. You probably know that Mattingly was a star player during his career, making six All-Star teams and winning an MVP award. With that in mind, I tried to assemble an All-Star team of players who either coached or managed the Phillies. First base: […]

We’re not really worried about the years or money right now, we’re worried about fit. Roster construction wise, he’s a good fit since he does a […]

It is not a hot take to believe the Phillies should sign free agent Bo Bichette to a free agent contract. The reasons why it would be a brilliant on-field move are legion. The 27-year-old shortstop was leading the American League in hits before he went on the Injured List with a bad leg, but […]
