Tonight marks Game 6 of the ALCS, a series that has been interesting. The first two games were relatively uncompetitive, one somewhat close, the other a blowout. The next two games were rather large blowouts going the other direction, knotting the series at two. Friday’s grand slam by Eugenio Suarez broke open a tight game […]

For the second straight year, the Philadelphia Phillies won the National League East with a win total in the mid-90s. And for the second straight year, the season ended with a 3-1 defeat to a lower-seeded team in the NLDS. It isn’t a revelation to say that regular season baseball is a different animal than […]

I think what will bother me for this entire offseason is that the Phillies had the Shohei Ohtani locked up. He was doing absolutely nothing at the plate. On the mound, different story, but when he put a bat in his hands, the Phillies were ready. It was quite impressive to watch them completely bottle […]

We all look forward to the end of season press conference that is given by the people in charge. Dave Dombrowski and Rob Thomson usually give relatively honest answers when questioned by reporters, a refreshing change from other executives that dance around questions and give generic, boring answers. After letting it sit for a day, […]

In case you weren’t aware, it was reported earlier this week that the Red Sox third baseman Alex Bregman would indeed be opting out of the remaining two years on his contract with Boston and will enter free agency. It was not really an unexpected move, as Bregman sat around all of last offseason looking […]

There are many different things to write about in the World of Baseballs, or, in bigger terms, the World of Sports. There’s the fact that the boring mega-payroll Dodgers just ousted the fun, also mega-payroll Phillies from the playoffs. (Ben has you covered.) Personally, I think the entire playoff structure is wack, and it should […]

Instead let's meet some newer guys since there are a lot of new faces around Jorge Alfaro - in the "we gotta try something behind the plate" world that the Nats are in - here is Alfaro. If the name sounds familiar we was a big-time prospect about a decade ago for the Phillies, a key piece to the Rangers trade f...
