The Phillies Show

Jhoan Duran might be the most talented closer in Phillies history, but nobody is perfect.
He blew his first save of the season on Tuesday night in Toronto. Duran had saved 16 consecutive games to start the season. Where do we rank Duran compared to past Phillies closers like Tug McGraw, Billy Wagner, Brad Lidge and Jonathan Papelbon? We also talk about Adolis García’s and Trea Turner’s recent performances, Christopher Sánchez’s and Zack Wheeler’s dominance and Jim spanking his tomatoes again.

The Phillies played 13 consecutive games without scoring five or more runs, until their series finale last week against the Padres. Then this weekend against the White Sox, they scored 20 runs to win another series. Everybody has been waiting for this for some time, but can it last? Does it change how you think about the trade deadline, if this continues?
We talk about the Phillies’ offense, the best performances of the past week, Andrew Painter’s fastball troubles and more.

The Phillies finally scored more than four runs in a game in Thursday’s victory over San Diego. It’s the first time they’ve done that since May 18! They continue to win under Don Mattingly, but it seems clear they will need a bat before the Aug. 3 trade deadline. But who?
Or they could just go all-in and try to win with elite pitching. Tarik Skubal anybody?
We discuss the Phillies’ trade possibilities, Cristophe Sánchez’s historic scoreless innings streak coming to an end, Nick Castellanos getting DFA’d in Philly, Aidan Miller’s back procedure and more.

Cristopher Sánchez's pursuit of Major League Baseball history continues on Wednesday night at Citizens Bank Park. He will begin the game with a 44 2/3-innings scoreless streak.
Former Phillies general manager and current Brewers executive Matt Klentak joined the show this week to tell the story behind the trade that brought Sánchez to Philadelphia in November 201. It wasn’t a major trade at the time. Far from it. But it will go down as one of the greatest trades in Phillies history.
Klentak also tells stories about how the Phillies signed free-agent Zack Wheeler in Dec. 2019, acquired J.T. Realmuto in a trade in Feb. 2019 and more!

The Phillies went 4-2 on a road trip through San Diego and Los Angeles, which typically would be time to celebrate.
But the Phillies’ struggling offense is a growing concern. They haven’t scored five runs in a game since May 18. They haven’t had 10 hits in a game since May 15. The Phillies are 21-10 since Don Mattingly became interim manager, but in that time they rank 29th in baseball with a .291 on-base percentage, 17 with a .693 OPS and 16th in runs per game (4.23).
What do they do about Adolis García?
What is up with Aidan Miller’s bad back?
