Does Bohm Have Good Reason to Hate This Place? (The Stadium, That Is)
The story need not be repeated. You are already familiar with the tale of Alec Bohm’s irritated mutterings, and the camera that caught them, the ensuing apology and appreciative ovation that followed. This article is not going to be about that. It’s not going to be about the psychology of being an athlete in the […]

What is something about the Phillies that still bothers you the most?
The Phillies can annoy us. There are things that they do that can get on our nerves, whether it be a questionable decision by the manager during a game (I’m still not over The Bunt), a trade that was made that returned virtually nothing (that’s all they got for Schilling?) or a season that ended […]

Phillies news: bullpen, WBC, Shohei Ohtani
There is no such thing as a bad one year contract. This is something that I have been told and come to believe. There are bad one year contracts insomuch as players turn into pumpkins during that one year, but there is nothing tethering them to the team long term. That’s what makes it a […]

The Notes: Diving into the Mets and Braves Offseasons
Since the last time we looked into the Mets offseason, a lot has changed! They let key players walk, signed new ones, and made multiple big trades to address drastic needs. There is a lot to dive into. On the Braves’ side, I should apologize for not talking about all of these moves earlier, given […]

What reason do you have to believe this season won’t be a waste?
The Phillies will be a contender this year. They have assembled a talented roster that has the ability to go on a run that would ultimately lead them to lifting a trophy when the season ends. This very fact can sometimes offend people who might believe otherwise. Does the team have some holes? Sure. Every […]

Another day, another cold snap that reminds us that the hot stove is probably turned off. Talk to me again when the warm sunshine of Florida is on my screen and I’m whining about how long spring training is. At least there is the World Baseball Classic this year. On to the links. Phillies news: […]

Let’s look at the remaining free agents. Who might be of use to the Phillies?
January is drawing to a close, which means there will be a mad scramble for remaining free agents that have been left to twist in the wind. At some point, their demands for that extra year, those few million dollars, will fall by the wayside, tossed aside in the hopes of finding employment for the […]

Put the bullpen in order of leverage: highest to lowest
Think about the bullpen that the Phillies were putting together when 2025 was beginning. Names like Jose Ruiz and Carlos Hernandez were prominent. Stuff was hard to find. In short, it wasn’t a good bullpen. Fast forward to now: the bullpen is probably the strength of this team. Is it the best way to construct […]

I’m actually kind of surprised how close we are to spring training. Had you asked me, I would have told you it was still like a month and a half away, but it’s kind of snuck up on us. Which is a good thing since we’re all sick of waiting for it to arrive. On […]

Phillies sign Dylan Moore to minor league deal
Hey! A signing that helps the Phillies shore up their infield depth, but maybe doesn’t move the needle much. Insurance in case Otto Kemp doesn’t work out, Moore could be a good option for the team as a bench bat.

How do you feel about Cristopher Sánchez pitching in the World Baseball Classic?
The World Baseball Classic has turned into a wildly entertaining showcase of the sport’s stars as they compete for their own individual country. It should be viewed as a great honor to perform under the banner of your home country, because as of right now, the WBC is the closest thing professional baseball players have […]

2026 Phillies roster projection, 1.0
The snow lingers. Anyone in the Philadelphia area looks outside today and sees white, frozen nothingness that will permeate our thoughts these next few days as the continued frigidness lingers.

Phillies’ minor league system looks to be about average
We’re starting to see more and more prospect pieces come out about either a top 100 ranking of individual prospects, or we’re seeing entire systems ranked. How they are being evaluated is probably right around where we would think they were. From Keith Law ($): 15 – What I said about Detroit applies here in […]

What do you think of the Phillies farm system overall?
Prospect rankings are a great tool to get to know what a team has coming in the pipeline. However, each one is different, as the writer’s own biases naturally come into play, and everyone has a different opinion on a player’s future. After all, projecting what players in their late teens and early twenties who […]
