Latest news and updates about the Phillies
When I get older, losing my bat speed/many seasons from now/will you still call me among the best/putting up a .900 OPS? Those lyrics to the Beatles’ When I’m Sixty Four—very slightly modified from the original— must be ringing in Bryce Harper’s ears right now. Entering his age-33 season, he is no longer young.

Making any kind of conclusion this early into Spring Training is foolhardy. There’s not much that occurs before the calendar even flips to March that can be used to glean insight on how a player will perform once the games begin to count.

Last week, we asked you if you think Bryce Harper is still elite. Today, a slightly different question. What would you need to see from Harper in 2026 to deem him still elite? Everyone’s got a different standard for elite. Some would cite WAR. Some would consider that statistic too dismissive of the heart, the […]

One of the big questions heading into this Spring Training is who will fill out the five-man rotation to start the season. Most of the starters are set, headlined by reigning Cy-Young finalist Cristopher Sanchez.
