Just like that, the Phillies are back in first place. The Mets got swept in Atlanta, and the Phillies took three of four games in Miami. And they did that due to excellent starting pitching from Ranger Suarez and Cristopher Sanchez. We will discuss the Phillies’ rotation, catch up on some news and notes (Nick Castellanos’ benching, Aaron Nola on the 60-day IL) and preview a big weekend series against the Mets on the PHLY Phillies Show.

The Philadelphia Phillies will, no doubt, be looking at bullpen help come Trade Deadline time. And one name that many Phillies fans want Dave Dombrowski to pursue is Boston Red Sox closer, Aroldis Chapman. And while Chapman is having an excellent season, here’s why a different Red Sox reliever could make sense for the Phillies.

It's the final two hours of our PHLY 12-hour Stream-a-thon! The PHLY Phillies Podcast is joined by PHLY staff as we go from a Phillies Pregame Show to a Phillies-Marlins Watch Along to end the night!

Last night, Rob Thomson elected to use Orion Kerkering in the 9th inning to pick up his first career MLB save, as the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Miami Marlins 5-2. Jordan Romano pitched the 7th inning, while Matt Strahm pitched the 8th inning before Thomson turned to Kerkering to close things out. Could the Phillies bullpen see a shift to Kerkering as the primary closer?

The Philadelphia Phillies sweep out the Toronto Blue Jays in a 3 game weekend series with an 11-4 win on Father's Day yesterday. Otto Kemp picked up 4 of the Phillies 18 hits, and Zack Wheeler tossed 6 strong innings in a weekend full of good starting pitching. But the big news, even if its unsurprising, is that Zack Wheeler will retire at the end of the 2027 season, which is the end of his 3-year contract extension. Does this change the Phillies plans for Ranger Suarez and Mick Abel?

With voting now open for the 2025 MLB All Star Game, we ask the question, will the Philadelphia Phillies have ANY starters in the lineup? Can Kyle Schwarber get elected as the DH? Will Trea Turner's defense turn voters away?

Cristopher Sanchez and the Phillies Phillies look for a little revenge against the Toronto Blue Jays after losing 2/3 to the Jays in Canada just 10 days ago. Plus, was Jesus Luzardo actually tipping pitches? And did he fix those problems? And is the Phillies defense as bad as it seems?

The National Baseball Hall of Fame opened its doors on this day in 1939. Since then, 278 former Major Leaguers have been enshrined in Cooperstown’s Hallowed Halls. With all this greatness, can we decide on the best roster possible of Hall of Fame players? Is Mike Schmidt not just the best Phillies 3B of all time, but the best ever? Does Steve Carlton join the five best starting pitchers of all time? We pick our lineup and rotation on the PHLY Phillies Podcast
