The Phillies Show

The Phillies had a chance to sweep the Braves last week before losing Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader.Still, the Phillies had momentum entering this weekend's series against the Brewers. But Milwaukee pummeled the Phillies, sweeping them at Citizens Bank Park for the first time since 2014. Almost everything went wrong. Sure, the Phils were without Bryce Harper, who is recovering from a HBP on his right elbow. But the pitching was bad at times, while the defense was arguably worse. We get into the bad and the ugly, plus a shakeup to the pitching staff.Get 20% off your first Slab Pack or card purchase by going to ArenaClub.com/FOUL and use code FOUL.It's “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza!

Braves right-hander Spencer Strider drilled Bryce Harper on the right elbow with a 95-mph fastball on Tuesday.Harper got lucky. X-rays were negative. He suffered only a bruise. But it's the third time in the last four games that Harper has been hit by a pitch. Phillies fans want vengeance. But will they get it? Does it have to happen before Atlanta leaves town on Thursday? When's the right time to do it?We also talk about Ranger Suárez's solid effort in Tuesday's 2-0 victory, and dissect some good and bad base running from the past few days.The Phillies Show is partnering with Shibe Vintage Sports to give away a different vintage Phillies hat each week!

What a Sunday at Citizens Bank Park.Major League Baseball announced before the game that Phillies left-hander José Alvarado was suspended 80 games for using a performance-enhancing substance. He will be ineligible for the postseason. It's a major blow to a bullpen that has leaned heavily on Alvarado, who has been its best pitcher this season. What are the short-term and long-term answers for the Phils?Mick Abel made his MLB debut on Sunday. He outdueled Paul Skenes in a 1-0 victory. A look at Abel's historic day.

It looked like Aaron Nola's early-season struggles were been behind him.After starting the season 0-5 with a 6.45 ERA, he had a 3.33 ERA in his last four starts. But in Game 2 of a doubleheader against St. Louis on Wednesday night, Nola suffered the worst start of his career. He allowed a career-high 12 hits, a career-high nine runs and tied a career-high three home runs allowed in a 14-7 loss. How concerned should we be about Nola? Why did Rob Thomson have Nola start the fourth inning after he allowed five runs in the third?The Phillies won Game 1, 2-1, behind two excellent performances from right-handers Jordan Romano and Orion Kerkering. We talk about Romano, Kerkering and Kyle Schwarber's 47-game on-base streak coming to an end.Get 20% off your first Slab Pack or card purchase by going to ArenaClub.com/FOUL and use code FOUL.Get up to 10 FREE meals and a free high protein item for life at HelloFresh.com/FT10FM.

The Phillies have won five consecutive series following Sunday night's 3-0 victory over Cleveland.They are 11-3 since they lost their series opener in Chicago late last month. It's the best record in baseball in that span. Kyle Schwarber is a big reason why. He hit two homers Sunday against the Guardians. He has hit 14 homers this season, which is tied with Aaron Judge for the most in baseball. He has a 46-game on-base streak.The Phillies are not only hitting, but they're pitching well and playing good defense.It's “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza!

The Phillies beat the Rays in Tuesday night's series opener in Tampa, 8-4.We talk about Zack Wheeler's fastball in another dominant performance, but we dig into three hot Phillies hitters, too. Everybody knows Kyle Schwarber is swinging a hot bat. He hit his fifth homer in seven games on Tuesday. Everybody knows Trea Turner is swinging a hot bat. He's batting .391 in his last 15 games. But how about Alec Bohm? He hit his first homer of the season on Tuesday. He is batting .327 with three doubles, one homer, six RBIs and an .832 OPS in 14 games since April 19.Got a Phillies questions for us?

The Phillies won two of three from Arizona this weekend at Citizens Bank Park. They have three consecutive series since getting swept in New York late last month. The offense is heating up. It is batting .276 with 13 home runs and an .806 OPS in the last eight games. But physical and mental errors keep popping up, and you wonder what might have happened in Sunday's series finale if the Phillies played cleaner in the field.It's “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza!

The Phillies are 17-14 following Thursday night's loss to the Nationals. If the season ended today, they'd be tied with Arizona for the third and final NL Wild Card. We talk about where the Phils are, and where they might be going in the coming months.Where is Taijuan Walker going? He's probably going to the bullpen, even though he has pitched well in his first six starts. That's because Ranger Suárez is rejoining the rotation on Sunday. We discuss how the Phillies should handle Suárez and Walker, and who might get bumped from the bullpen to make room for Walker.They say Delco's a lot … and they're right.

Where do we even start?The Phillies won an absolutely crazy game on Tuesday night at Citizens Bank Park. They won on their first walk-off wild pitch since April 1993. A Phillies pitcher struck out the side after loading the bases with no outs in the eighth inning or later for the first time since 1968. There were big hits and big mistakes in the field.

The Phillies bounced back in a major way this weekend against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.Now, can they build off it?The Phils lost on Friday, giving them a five-game losing streak and dropping them to .500. But they won the final two games of the series to head home at 15-13. The offense came up big on Saturday, scoring 10 runs. Aaron Nola came up big on Sunday, allowing only one run in seven innings.

It's still early, but the Phillies can't play like this forever.They need to get going. The Mets swept the Phillies this week at Citi Field. The Phils have lost 10 of their last 16 games. There are plenty of reasons why. The bullpen continues to struggle. There are cracks in the rotation with Aaron Nola 0-5 and Cristopher Sánchez's left forearm hurting. The offense had just three extra-base hits in the entire series.

Cristopher Sánchez became a trendy pick in the spring for a top five NL Cy Young Award finish.He pitched like one in Thursday's 6-4 victory over the Giants. He struck out 12 batters, the most by a Phillies left-hander since Cole Hamels struck out 13 in his no-hitter against the Cubs in his final start for the organization in 2015.We discuss Sánchez's dominance but also look at the Phillies' jumbled outfield situation, the upcoming Marlins series and more, including a few of your questions!Upgrade your wardrobe and save on @trueclassic at trueclassic.com/FOUL! #trueclassicpodGet 20% off your first Slab Pack or card purchase by going to ArenaClub.com/FOUL and use code FOUL.Love The Phillies Show?

In case you missed it, Alec Bohm and Brandon Marsh have been going through a terrible start to the 2025 season.But both had important at-bats in Tuesday night's 6-4 victory over the Giants. Marsh's sacrifice fly in the second inning gave the Phillies a 2-0 lead. Bohm's base hit in the sixth inning gave the Phillies the lead. Afterward, Harper had some philosophical thoughts about players struggling in the big leagues:“I just want [Bohm] to enjoy the game. Life could be a lot harder. Life can be a lot tougher. We get to play this beautiful game every day. I was standing in the on-deck circle in the third inning and I was thinking about it, 'Man, it's a great game we get to play.' Obviously, you're going to get your ups and downs in life and in the season. It's a hard thing to do. It is. But at the end of the day, we're all healthy, we're all strong. Just go out there and enjoy it because it'll go quick and you'll start thinking to yourself, 'Why did I take it so serious?

Everybody was riding high a week ago, then the Phillies went 2-4 in Atlanta and St. Louis.It ended with a 7-0 loss on Sunday in St. Louis. A lot of things didn't go right for the Phillies on the road. Mostly, the offense lacked punch. One of the culprits was Brandon Marsh.

Alec Bohm hit a rocket to Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies in his first at-bat on Thursday night in Atlanta.Albies caught it. Bohm flipped his bat. Bohm went 0 for 5 in the Phillies' 4-2 loss in 11 innings at Truist Park. He is batting .160 with no home runs, three RBIs and a .356 OPS in his first 11 games. He is struggling. It shows. He has looked frustrated on the field. He twice declined to speak to reporters before the game. We get into Bohm's struggles, and some of the overreaction to it.We also talk about the state of the bullpen, including an encouraging bounce back from Jordan Romano.This week's episode is brought to you by Citizens!

Edmundo Sosa made the catch of his life in the first inning on Tuesday night in Atlanta, but a huge mistake in left-center field involving both Sosa and center fielder Johan Rojas cost the Phillies the game. Ruben coached big league outfielders in Boston and New York. He breaks down everything that went wrong when they let a ball fall just feet in front of them, leading to a three-run homer from Sean Murphy.Should Sosa keep playing in left field against left-handed pitching?

Title: Beat L.A.: Phillies win series against “unbeatable” DodgersSomebody asked J.T. Realmuto on Friday about playing the Dodgers and he joked that he heard they were “unbeatable.”Well, the Phillies handed L.A. its first two losses of the season in a series win at Citizens Bank Park. Does it mean anything in the long run? No, but it showed skeptics that the Phillies can not only hang with anybody, but they can beat anybody. We talk about the series against the Dodgers, including Sunday's 8-7 comeback victory. We talk about the good things like Nick Castellanos' grand slam, José Alvarado's latest dominant effort and more.

It hasn't been an easy year for Walker, who has been booed in Clearwater, Washington and Philadelphia in just the past couple weeks. Walker was more than just a good baseball story on Thursday. He was a great human story.We preview this weekend's series against the Dodgers, and talk Money Moves. Specifically, torpedo bats! We caught up with Victus Sports founder and CEO Jared Smith, whose bat manufacturing business is in King of Prussia.

The Phillies play their final Grapefruit League game on Monday in Clearwater. Afterward, they're flying to Philadelphia.Opening Day is Thursday in DC.The roster is almost entirely set. Ranger Suárez is expected to open the season on the IL, moving Taijuan Walker into the rotation. The Phils claimed right-hander Carlos Hernández off waivers from Kansas City. He'll take the last job in the bullpen as Tyler Phillips got DFA'd. The last spot on the team is between Kody Clemens and Buddy Kennedy.We dig into the roster and how Rob Thomson said he might use two lineups to open the season.Plus, it's “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza!

Shortly after the Phillies optioned Garrett Stubbs to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday, he joined The Phillies Show to talk about a difficult day, how he plans to tackle his new job in Triple-A, what he will miss most in the Phillies' clubhouse and more. Stubbs is one of the most popular players in the Phillies' clubhouse in recent memory, and it's not just because he curated the “Phils Win” playlist on Spotify and celebrated clinchers with the best of them. He worked hard behind the scenes, helping pitchers prepare for their starts and more. He brought a lot to the table, and some of those qualities showed during his chat with us.Go to SpotandTango.com/foul and use code foul to get 50% off your first order.Love The Phillies Show?

Now we know why Phillies manager Rob Thomson hasn't announced his rotation beyond Opening Day starter Zack Wheeler.Ranger Suárez has a sore back again. We will know more in the next 24 to 48 hours, but there's a chance he might not be ready to start the season. If Suárez can't make his first turn (or more) in the rotation, who's next in line? Yep, it's Taijuan Walker. We talk about Suárez's health, Walker's ability to step up and more, including José Alvarado's curveball and a Phillies-themed run through the NCAA basketball tournament bracket.Get 20% off your first Slab Pack or card purchase by going to ArenaClub.com/FOUL and use code FOUL.Love The Phillies Show?

Where do the Phillies' roster battles stand with Opening Day 10 days away? It is going to be Rafael Marchán or Garrett Stubbs as backup catcher? Is the bench going into include Kody Clemens and Buddy Kennedy? Does Johan Rojas make the team, even though the Phillies want to see if Brandon Marsh can be an everyday player?

Trea Turner is probably going to be the Phillies' leadoff hitter on Opening Day.He came to camp trying to make better decisions at the plate, and trying to hit the ball to the opposite field more. He hasn't seen many positive results so far, although Thursday he homered, walked and had a sacrifice fly. We talk about Turner's spring and comments hitting coach Kevin Long recently made about Turner's performance in Florida.Would Bryce Harper really move to the outfield this season, if the Phillies can acquire a power-hitting first baseman? He says yes.Plus, Jimmy Rollins and Ed Wade will be inducted onto the Wall of Fame this summer.Love The Phillies Show?

The Phillies have had a pretty quiet camp in Clearwater, Fla., but they've just had their first hiccup.All-Star lefty Matt Strahm is experiencing a left shoulder issue, which could force him to open the season in the injured list. Strahm had an MRI exam, which revealed no structural damage, but an impingement has caused inflammation. He is not going to throw until Thursday at the earliest. We talk about Strahm's injury and what it might mean for the bullpen in the short term.Plus, the latest on Alec Bohm, Ranger Suárez, Taijuan Walker and more.It's “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza!

How much stock should you put into a player's performance in spring training?It depends. A player like Max Kepler, who is new and perhaps looking to impress after making swing changes? Maybe a lot. A player like Trea Turner, who is a perennial All-Star? Not so much.

He's supposed to play Friday against the Red Sox in Clearwater.We talk about that scare, but then dig into some interesting happenings this week in Florida.

Phillies right-hander Aaron Nola has been one of baseball's best, more durable pitchers for nearly a decade. From 2017-24, he ranks first in baseball in innings pitched (1,432 2/3); second in strikeouts (1,590); and third in baseball in wins (92) and WAR (34.0). He's helped the Phillies make the postseason each of the past three seasons.Nola joined the show from Clearwater, Fla., to talk about the things that have made him successful – his curveball and preparation, for starters – plus, how he fulfilled a lifelong dream of having his own baseball spikes and his charity poker tournament on May 15 at Citizens Bank Park that will benefit veterans.Go here to learn more about Nola's charity poker tournament.Nutrafol is offering our listeners $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you go to Nutrafol.com and enter the promo code FOUL.Love The Phillies Show?

Has any pitcher in baseball been better than Zack Wheeler the past five seasons?If you look at the numbers, Wheeler is No. 1. And it's not even close. Wheeler leads baseball with 25.4 bWAR and 24.7 fWAR from 2020-24. He is second in wins (59), second in innings pitched (829 1/3) and WHIP (1.03). He is third in ERA (2.94). He has a career 2.18 postseason ERA, which is the fourth-best (minimum 10 starts).But what makes Wheeler tick? We learned a little more about Wheeler's preparation, his demeanor on the mound and more in a recent conversation at BayCare Ballpark in Clearwater, Florida.Love The Phillies Show?
