The contrast between Howie Roseman and Daryl Morey could not be more stark. One is relentless in his pursuit of roster upgrades and exploiting small advantages. The other coasts on a reputation he doesn’t deserve, propped up by fanboys who can’t name a single accomplishment.

The fact that no one has taken Eric Dixon is ridiculous.

For those Lakers fans asking around, Dixon turned himself into an elite, volume shooter with a smooth and repeatable release. He can bully smaller defenders in space and was 81% from the line for his college career. Dedicated to the craft and clearly a stand up guy. Eric Dixon

The Mets had a team meeting last night and are already down 5-0 to the Pirates lmaooooooooo

The Phillies desperately need to replace more than half their lineup next year and that’s not an exaggeration.

That’s the exact opposite of our view and what we’ve heard from friends. Having kids young doesn’t make it easier or more fulfilling—just different. Travel, build a career, live your life.

This is the most destructive, cruel, and flat out stupid piece of legislation passed in my lifetime, and I’m not sure if it’s even close.

Harper has no power. Bohm’s batting cleanup with a .400 SLG. Castellanos leads the NL in men LOB. Kepler barely deserves a bench spot. J.T. is an automatic groundout. Stott’s been one of MLB’s worst hitters for a year. But sure, people are overreacting about the Phillies offense.

I’m trying to understand why baseball writers publishing trade deadline primers say the Phillies only need bullpen help. Are we watching the same team? This lineup is abysmal.

Every single check-in with Barkann and Davis during the 7th-inning stretch is like, the Phillies have left 18 on base and our starter has been phenomenal, the game is tied at one.

I do not care what it takes, Kyle Schwarber must retire in a Phillies uniform.

Here I am, once again, reminding you that Josh Shapiro should be the Democratic nominee in 2028.

The hard truth most Phillies fans don’t want to hear is that they’d get more value trading Ranger Suárez than keeping him for the rest of the year.

I had the privilege of working with Jay for a few years in D.C. He’s one of the last people in a position of power in that town with real integrity. We’d be in a different place today had others responded to Trump’s nonsense and bluster like this.

The ultimate problem for the Phillies is that they really can’t solve their offensive woes at the deadline. They’re in this position because they A) refused to do real work in the offseason and B) haven’t drafted and developed impact players in years.

Imagine if Bryson Stott was even average at the plate.

Friday night Phillies in Texas. Going to find Dave to talk some sense into him on Schwarber. Ballpark 26 of the current 30 and 30th overall.

There’s so much here. - Harry doesn’t waste a single word. “One hop and off the fence” is beautiful in its simplicity. - Utley’s swing is the closest to textbook you’ll ever see. - The combination of instincts + IQ required to score when you see the high chopper is unfathomable.

Jalen Hurts last year vs. the QBs ranked above him: 7-0

Whatever comes of this Phillies season now, it’s hard not to see 2023 as the golden opportunity that they let slip away.
