Report: Jesús Luzardo agrees to five-year extension with the Phillies
The deal many expected to happen this spring has indeed come to fruition, as ESPN’s Jeff Passan is reporting that the Phillies and Jesús Luzardo have agreed to a five-year contract extension that will keep the left-hander in Philadelphia through 2031. Luzardo, now 28 years old, will be 34 when his contract expires. Passan also […]
Gamethread 3/9: Phillies at Red Sox
Here are the lineups. For the Phillies: For the Red Sox: Let’s talk about it (or the WBC stuff)
Red Sox Spring Training Game Thread: Garett Crochet takes on the Phillies
Is it on TV? No! It is not! And you better get used to that, because NESN isn’t showing the game tomorrow or Friday this week either and the Sox are off on Wednesday. I will never in my life understand this. Even if it’s “too expensive” to do a full broadcast, why not just […]
No, Garrett Stubbs should not be the 26th man on the roster
When we reach this point in spring training, finding stories is often hard to do. For teams like the Phillies, teams that have a rather full roster difficult to crack for most veterans, they are reduced having to slog through games that will have very little determination on the edges of that roster. While the […]
Phillies news: Kyle Schwarber, Aidan Miller, Tarik Skubal
I’m pretty sure we can stop with the “Alan Rangel is an option to be a starter” experiment for the future. He got lit up pretty good yet again, pushing his spring ERA over nine. He’s just soaking up innings at this point, but let’s hope if there is an injury this season, his name […]
Gamethread 3/8: Phillies at Twins
The Phillies followed up Friday’s 14 run outburst by getting shut out on Saturday. Chances are, their offensive output on Sunday will fall somewhere in between when they travel to Fort Myers to take on the Minnesota Twins. Alan Rangel will get the ball for the Phillies. The righthander is vying to be considered for […]
Quick Spring Recap: Jays Beat Phillies
Jays 1 Phillies 0 The best part of this one was that Max Scherzer started and threw 4 no-hit innings, allowing just 1 walk with 1 strikeouts. He was helped out by some defensive play, but he got through the four innings on just 40 pitches (29 strikeouts). Max was terrific. I didn’t think he’d […]
The Phillies need to win a playoff series (or so you say)
The other day, I posted a short piece about how the Phillies not winning a World Series title does not mean they haven’t had a successful season. There was a short survey to ask your opinion, so here are those results. It’s interesting that the results are somewhat varied. Success can vary from person to […]
Spring GameThread: Jays @ Phillies
The Jays make the short drive to Clearwater to play the Phillies. We get out first look Max Scherzer this spring. He says he’ll be ready for opening day. I didn’t expect that he would be in the rotation to start the season. I think the odds of him being able to give us 30 […]

Did you happen to see the lineup that the Phillies put out yesterday against the Pirates? Sure they won in a 14-10 barnburner, but man did that scorecard contain a lot of names that will be forgotten in a few short weeks. Such is life in the WBC spring training. On to the links. Phillies […]
Why do outsiders like the Phillies more than Phils fans do?
There is one thing I would suggest Phillies fans, myself included, do more of this year. Zoom out. Here in Philly, we can be a bit myopic when it comes to our sports teams. We are immersed in the day-to-day, week-to-week, monthly and yearly frustrations that come with following a baseball team with great intensity, […]

National League East 2026 Preview
Despite a dramatic midseason battle for first, the NL East was fairly clear cut for most of last season. At the end of May, the Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets were tied in a dead-heat, and the Miami Marlins, Atlanta Braves, and Washington Nationals had all started a downward trend out of contention. By […]
Spring Training Game Thread: Red Sox at 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 […]

The (Former) Phillie who Aced ABS
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 […]
Phillies News: Jhoan Duran, Bryce Harper, Johan Rojas
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 […]

Which past MLB PED controversy surprised you the most?
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 […]
The “Last Man In” free agent tournament winner!
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 […]
GDT: If a game doesn’t have a TV broadcast, did it really even happen?
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 […]
2026 Chicago Cubs player profiles: Hoby Milner
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, […]
Which player from the 2007-2011 Phillies would most help the 2026 Phillies?
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 […]
