A six-game sample size is far too small to induce any panic, but it’s been far from an ideal start to the season for the Philadelphia Phillies. Touted as a World Series frontrunner by many, the Phillies have had a sluggish start to their 2024 campaign, with a 2-4 record and -14 run differential. Of […]

The first few games can feel like a trial run as teams feel each other out and star players struggle through their first couple outings. Sure, the games count now, but is […]

There’s a lot that must feel new about this season for Rhys Hoskins. It’s his first as a Milwaukee Brewer, after the emotional rush of the 2022 playoff run with the Philadelphia Phillies, a season-ending ACL tear to start 2023, and the experience of becoming expendable once Bryce Harper moved to first base. Yet with […]

The Philadelphia Phillies haven’t gotten off to a good start in 2024 after allowing 21 runs to the rival Atlanta Braves in a pair of losses through the first two games of the season. But it isn’t for a lack of effort from superstar Bryce Harper. Atlanta’s Austin Riley popped a foul ball of Phillies […]

The Philadelphia Phillies roster is stacked with big-time talent, but their championship window won’t last forever.

Will 2024 be the Philadelphia Phillies’ year? The Phillies are fresh off back-to-back impressive seasons. Philadelphia reached the World Series in 2022 and the NLCS in 2023.

The Philadelphia Phillies added a notable pickup to their roster back in February when they signed utility infielder Whit Merrifield to a one-year deal worth $8 million.

The Philadelphia Phillies have high expectations for the 2024 season.

With Dylan Cease recently getting traded from the […]
