GDT: Tampa Bay should just never trade with Philadelphia

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 […]

Where does last night’s homer rank in Harper’s All-Time Moments?

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 […]

Where will the Phillies finish this season?

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 […]

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

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 […]

2026 season preview: 1 player, 1 question – catcher edition

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. Rafael Marchan – can he hit enough […]

Looking at the Rangers’ likely Opening Day roster

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 […]

10 bold predictions for the 2026 Phillies

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 […]

Phillies news: Chase Utley, Jesus Luzardo, Seiya Suzuki

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 […]

JR Ritchie impresses in 1-0 victory over Philly

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 […]

Braves vs Phillies Spring Training Game Thread: 3/15/2026

JR Ritchie was slated to start today’s game, but instead, Jose Suarez gets the start, with Ritchie set to get some work later in the game. Taijuan Walker will take the mound for Philly, coming off of a rough two seasons and looking to bounce back in a contract year. The Braves are running out […]

Gamethread 3/15: Phillies vs Braves

The Atlanta Braves will visit BayCare Ballpark on Sunday afternoon for some Grapefruit League action. Taijuan Walker will be the first pitcher for the Phillies, fresh off his stint with the Mexican team in the WBC. The Braves are expected to start with lefthander Jose Suarez. Game time is 1:05 and will be televised locally […]

You think Rob Thomson might be on the hot seat

The other day, I asked a few questions about Rob Thomson and his tenure with the Phillies. He is in the midst of arguably the best stretch of regular season baseball this franchise has had in their history, yet he is not as universally liked as one might imagine. There are pockets of people that […]

Phillies news: Zack Wheeler, Justin Crawford, Robert Stephenson

Another spring victory, which is great, but we’re here for the showdown tonight in Miami. United States vs. Dominican Republic, Paul Skenes vs. possibly the best lineup ever assembled. If you’re not excited by this matchup, I’m know sure you have a pulse. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:

Phillies news: Jose Alvarado, Andrew Painter, Jose Berrios

Andrew Painter’s start yesterday had some good and some bad to it. It’s important to remember that he’s still just in that third start of the spring and that he’s likely working on some things right now. Still, he’s getting outs and that’s what matters. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:

Orioles live game chat: March 13 vs. Phillies, 1:05

Ahead of Friday’s spring training game against the Phillies, the Orioles delivered some news: Trevor Rogers is going to be the Opening Day starting pitcher. Though we had some spring weather in Birdland home territory over in the week, things have headed in a colder direction today, so it’s nice that this game will be […]

Orioles news: Trevor Rogers named Opening Day starter

With 13 days to go before Opening Day, the Orioles have their starting pitcher. The team announced before Friday’s spring training game against the Phillies that the dominant star from last year, Trevor Rogers, is getting the nod for the first start of the season. On one hand, it’s no surprise that the guy who […]
