Will the Phillies trade Bryce Harper this offseason? It’s very unlikely. Harper, one of only two well above average hitters for the Phillies in 2026, has a full no-trade clause. He goes only if he wants to go. Harper had repeatedly said that But if the Phillies are seeking real change this offseason, every potential […]
Even though the NLCS is over and the ALCS is starting to wind down, it’s easy to look at both rosters and wonder what might be. Each roster is littered with players that would be great on any team, but that’s not what we’re here for. Which player, from any team that was in the […]
PHILADELPHIA — As Tom Burgoyne prepared to take on what might be the most ridiculous job in America, his predecessor decided to mess with him. Dave Raymond, the original performer inside the Phillie Phanatic costume, is left-handed. So as Burgoyne, his backup for five years, took some pointers, Raymond told the righty that their boss, […]
It was too late for me to add to the news yesterday, but how about the Orioles owner saying the quiet part out loud? Honestly, I don’t think that it does much to sway anything in the upcoming negotiations either way too wildly. The MLBPA still hasn’t started putting out ads to combat the ones […]
The Orioles’ disappointing season can be attributed to poor offensive and defensive performances by key players, and injuries to some others. It can’t be attributed to the bullpen. Perhaps the most surprising stat about Oriole relievers is that they pitched the fourth-fewest innings in baseball, 573. Only the Dodgers, Phillies and Mariners used the bullpen […]
Alec Bohm, the Philadelphia Phillies’ corner infielder, opened 2026 hitting .159 through his first 35 games, but managed to drive in 73 runs over his final 120 games to finish the season. However, that production was not enough to salvage a highly disappointing year where he batted just .249 overall, and his impending departure now […] The post “May Be the Most Important Piece”: Phillies Warned Against Letting Go of $10.2M Star appeared first on EssentiallySports .
J.T. Realmuto has long been one of the league’s most durable catchers, and that has continued into his mid-30s. He leads the Majors with 613 games started behind the plate since 2022. That includes 122 games started this year, which bests the Brewers’ William Contreras by one game for tops at the position. At the […]
The New York Mets decided to move on from manager Carlos Mendoza during the regular season. It seemed as if Mendoza would be a candidate to manage once again in 2027. Sure enough, Mendoza was reportedly linked to the Seattle Mariners manager opening before he joined the Philadelphia Phillies as a third base and infield […] The post MLB rumors: Carlos Mendoza was linked to Mariners before joining Phillies coaching staff appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Change is coming to Philadelphia (we hope). If the NLCS, and to a lesser extent the ALCS, has taught us anything, it’s that the Phillies need to make things different for next year’s roster if they want to have a chance at competing for a World Series. There is a gap that currently exists between […]
In recent years, the Phillies have expressed a desire to sign a player coming to Major League Baseball from Japan. It makes sense considering the many Japanese imports who have succeeded recently. Just last season, Munetaka Murakami provided the White Sox a huge boost, while Kazuma Okamoto was a strong contributor for the Blue Jays. […]
I don’t know, I’m not all that inspired by Dave Dombrowski’s end of year presser. He sounded like he’s going to try and make changes, but with this roster as it is, how will be actually do that? Some are going to have waive some no-trade clauses for that to actually happen. On to the […]
Since reaching the 2022 World Series and subsequently losing to the Houston Astros, the Philadelphia Phillies’ postseason success has steadily declined. In 2023, the Phillies bowed out in the NLCS, then lasted only to the NLDS in the two years that followed. This year, they fell another step down with an NL Wild Card Round […] The post “I’m Doing Stupid Money”: Phillies’ Biggest Problem Exposed as Analyst Calls Out Owner Amid Major Concerns appeared first on EssentiallySports .
The Phillies reshuffled their infield at the trade deadline, moving three players to new positions to accommodate Luis Arraez. They kicked Bryson Stott over to third base, Alec Bohm across the diamond to first, and Bryce Harper to right field. Shortstop Trea Turner was the only constant on the dirt. It was an overhaul for a two-month rental that […]
The Athletics have been in the market for a new front office leader since they parted with longtime general manager David Forst on Aug. 7. The A’s have since identified several candidates to succeed Forst, but if they had their way, Phillies president of business operations Sam Fuld would have taken the reins. Fuld, a […]
PHILADELPHIA — For now, Trea Turner remains at shortstop for the Phillies. But president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski was […]
With the Philadelphia Phillies turning their focus to next season following the conclusion of their regular-season campaign, the front office has appointed former New York Mets manager Carlos Mendoza to a new role within the organization for 2027. In the MLB, midseason managerial firings are a rarity, but after a downward spiral during the 2026 campaign, the New York Mets parted ways with Carlos Mendoza . While many assumed Mendoza’s story in the division was paused, the rival Philadelphia P...
The Phillies in 2026 finished 15th in MLB with 105 stolen bases. They did not steal a base during the three-game wild card series against the Atlanta Braves. The full-season numbers do not tell the entire story. The Phillies in the first half were a top-ten team in stolen bases with 74. After the All-Star […]
A new rumor claims that many around MLB expect the Philadelphia Phillies to turn to the international market to replace […]
Trea Turner will open the season at shortstop. Don Mattingly is returning as manager. Alec Bohm could be back at third base, Luis Arraez could also return. The majority of a bullpen nobody liked is set to return, no starting pitchers are getting dealt to help in other areas, and it sounds like Brandon Marsh […]
PHILADELPHIA — Dave Dombrowski‘s answer about Alec Bohm’s future Thursday made it seem more likely than not that the former […]
The Braves won the NL East and defeated the Phillies in the wild card round before falling to the Dodgers in the NLDS. It was a nice return to form for the Braves after their injury-marred 76-86 season in 2025, but Atlanta will need to fill some roster holes and perhaps address some broader concerns […]
Yesterday, our topic of discussion was what is your own worst-case scenario for what the Phillies will do this offseason. Today, we’re going to try and envision a scenario where everything goes right, or at least as right as possible. Like we mentioned yesterday, the Phillies have their work cut out for them. The free […]
Happy Friday, everyone! As we enter the weekend, we will soon know which team will join the Brewers in heading to the World Series. In the meantime, we look at how Shohei Ohtani busted his HR slump at the exact perfect time. We also look at how Jake Bauers pulled through for the Brewers with […]
