The Phillies Show

The Phillies have been playing bad baseball for weeks, and if they keep playing like this it could cost Rob Thomson his job.
Should it? We discuss Dave Dombrowski’s comments on Tuesday in Chicago, and his role in the Phillies’ mess. It includes a historically bad start for the Phillies’ offense, a pitching staff that no longer seems to be a strength and more.

We’ll find out if this is rock bottom for the Phillies.
They just got swept by the Braves. They’ve lost five in a row, 10 out of 13 and just finished their worst nine-game homestand in almost 17 years. They have the worst run differential in baseball, too. Yes, it’s even worse than the Mets, who have lost 11 in a row. The Phillies are hoping it’s just a bad start, but maybe it’s more than that.
We discuss the homestand, Zack Wheeler’s return. Taijuan Walker’s spot on the roster and more.

It’s not good, folks.
The Phillies rank toward the bottom in baseball in most offensive categories. They have one of the highest ERAs in baseball. They rank as one of the worst defenses. They’re 8-10. They’ve been in worse spots before, but the longer this continues the more people wonder if they will dig out of it.
We talk about everything that’s gone wrong, and who shoulders the blame.
We also discuss Jesús Luzardo’s troubling start, Zack Wheeler’s return to the rotation, Aidan Miller’s chronic back injury and more.

Phillies right-hander Aaron Nola joins the show!
He’s having a charity poker tournament on Thursday night at Citizens Bank Park, which includes an auction of great stuff. We talked to Nola about the event, plus plenty of baseball. Why he loves throwing to J.T. Realmuto, what impresses him about Andrew Painter, how he got a little extra zip on his fastball this season, learning from Carlos Ruiz, Cole Hamels and much more!

Bryce Harper made it short and quick following Sunday’s 4-3 loss to Arizona:
“Just bad baseball.”
What made it bad? Bad base running, a poor approach at the plate, just an overall lack of offense. We dig into the Phillies’ 7-8 start, and what is ailing the Phillies’ lineup. Plus, we look at who the Phils’ next cleanup hitter should be and more.
