Latest news and updates about the Phillies
Is it on TV? It sure is. First pitch is at 1:05 PM on MLB Network. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? Yikes. As fun as it’s been watching Braiden Ward small-ball his way around the bases this spring, today’s lineup is absolutely brutal. And we don’t even have any fun WBC exhibitions […]

Spring is a time for new beginnings. Flowers bloom. Creatures small and large emerge from their hibernation. Birdsong returns to sunny mornings. Statcast releases new data. I think that last one is the most beautiful of all. Baseball Savant just released new data on the Automated Ball-Strike Challenge System for us to peruse. It’s got […]

The World Baseball Classic officially got underway last night with the first game in the Tokyo Dome that featured Chinese Taipei and Australia. There are a couple of lower-level Phillies prospects on Team Australia, but most of the names you would recognize won’t start official WBC play until tomorrow. Meanwhile, we still have plenty of […]

The big MLB news yesterday centered on drug suspensions, as two NL Easy players were reportedly linked to PEDs. The Phillies’ Johan Rojas was in the second case of the day, but the first was far more prominent: the Braves’ Jurickson Profar. If that sounds familiar, it’s because the exact same thing happened to Profar […]

And the winner is…Bryce Harper! Last month, with the free agency period winding down, I looked at the Phillies’ free agent signings from years past to see if they had brought in any impact players later in the offseason. From there, the idea of a user-judged tournament began. While I had some hope that Ricardo […]

It’s split squad day with one contingent of Rays traveling to take on the Twins and another contingent remaining in Port Charlotte to take on the Phillies. No TV today but the Twins radio team will cover that game and the Rays will have radio coverage of the game in Port Charlotte. We will have […]

Today we look at the Cubs’ new left-handed reliever. Hoby Milner came to the Cubs as a free agent after spending a year as a Texas Ranger, where he had a little success, as he has had during a long career, previously with the Phillies, Rays, and Brewers. His ERA and peripherals weren’t so great, […]

A few weeks ago I asked which player from the past decade would most help the Phillies and you all had some great ideas. This week, let’s back it up a little further and look at the last “Golden Era” of Phillies baseball — the 2007-2011 team that won five consecutive NL East titles, two […]

In today’s installment of our daily thrice weekly occasional spring series, I wanted to ask about the World Baseball Classic. Exhibition games kick off tomorrow, WBC squads facing off against MLB teams. The Jays host Team Canada at their usual 1:07pm ET spring timeslot. Canada then visits the Phillies on Wednesday before flying to Puerto […]

March has suddenly snuck up on us, which means actual real baseball will begin in earnest later this month. We’ll get to experience the thrill of the World Baseball Classic once it begins in a few days, but the curtain raising on the MLB season is mere weeks away at this point. That means rosters […]

Not only did Andrew Painter have a good outing yesterday, but the trio of left handers that the team is looking to bring north – Jose Alvarado, Tanner Banks and Kyle Backhus – all had scoreless outings as well. Might they all actually be on the team on Opening Day? Sounds like you’re looking for […]

Both the Yankees and Phillies ran out partial lineups in Sunday’s afternoon action, with many players on both sides gearing up for action in this year’s World Baseball Classic. Despite that fact, it was a relatively tight game, that moved quickly end-to-end, featuring plenty of good pitching on both sides and promise for their starters, […]

Sure, there is another loss in the ledger for the Phillies, one that will likely be forgotten in due time. We’re still gettin the good Bryson Stott right now, something to keep an eye on once the games actually begin to mean something. But today, this was the day to talk about Andrew Painter. This […]

Now in the heart of spring training, the Yankees head to Clearwater for their 10th exhibition game of the year, this one against the Phillies. It’s been a strong start for the Bombers, as they’ve gone 7-2 thus far in their Grapefruit League play, and will look to continue the solid stretch with Will Warren […]

The Grapefruit League schedule continues on Sunday with the Yankees visiting Clearwater. But there will be considerably less star power on hand, as several prominent players like Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, and Brad Keller have departed for World Baseball Classic competition. But the game shouldn’t lack for interest as it will feature the 2026 debut […]

Yesterday, there was a bit of a stir from Phillies camp as it was reported that the back issue Aidan Miller is getting treatment for might keep him out of spring games. As noted, his not getting plate appearances this spring is disappointing if in fact he does not receive any, but caution needs to […]

Today is something of a big day for the Phillies. Andrew Painter makes his spring debut for the team as they look to see if he is the best option for the fifth spot in the rotation. There has been excitement surrounding him this camp as he works his way back from a disappointing 2025, […]

The hopes for Aidan Miller playing games during spring training and potentially forcing the team to make a decision have taken a hit. He has an issue with his back that preventing him from doing much at all right now. Miller, 21, is recovering from a recurring back issue, stalling the Phillies’ plans to play […]

We have two spring games today, so we get two GameThreads in one. That is our reward for making it to the end of February. Both games have some players I’d like to watch. More of the regulars are in the Phillies game. And we can watch Dylan Cease pitch in that one. Jose Berrios […]
