I’ve Caught Phils Phever: The Phillies Are Going To Beat The St. Louis Cardinals


The Phillies broke their 11 year playoff drought and are finally back in the postseason. Heading into their Wild Card series matchup with the St. Louis Cardinals, there are enough narratives to get the attention of Stephen A. Smith.   Barry Bonds is the home run KING!!!! pic.twitter.com/KjpCOtAkuJ — Stephen A Smith (@stephenasmith) October 5, […]

Realistic Deadline Additions For The Phillies


When Dave Dombrowski spoke to the media in the Phillies dugout before their series against the Braves, he was shockingly transparent. He seems to like where the Phillies are at lineup wise, especially with Jean Segura on the way back and Bryce Harper hopefully returning by the time the Birds wrap up their preseason schedule. […]

The Phillies Are Royally Screwed


I’m not going to sugarcoat this. I will not try to convince anyone of anything good. If you came here looking for any sort of hope for the Phillies this summer, you’ve come to the wrong place. On today, June 26, with the Phillies three games above .500 and 2.5 games back of the last […]

Will the Phillies Finally Sustain Any Sort of Momentum?


Philadelphia sports are the real life embodiment of Michael Corleone from The Godfather: Part III, “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.” The Eagles have resembled that quote pretty much every year since 2017, the Sixers have been that way since they decided to start trying to win basketball games, […]

The Phillies Are Stuck In The Worst Position In Sports: Mediocrity


The Philadelphia Phillies are one game under .500 as I write this sentence here in mid-May. Chances are, the Phillies will hover around this mark all the way through the regular season’s conclusion in the first week of October. Since coming out of their “rebuild” in 2017, the Phillies have a record of 211-218 over […]

The Phillies Just Bad News Bears’d Themselves Out Of A Win


In the 8th inning of tonight’s Orioles vs Phillies game, we saw a bare handed jump pass from a pitcher, Tim Tebow Florida style to throw out a runner stealing home. It wouldn’t even register as one of the Top 5 whackiest moments of the game that was. The Phillies Bad News Bear’s themselves out […]

Jean Segura Lost 14 lbs by Turning Into a Nerd


Jean Segura is king of the infield single. He’s speed personified. He’s a giant big ol’ nerd? The second baseman(?) lost 14 pounds over the offseason but at what cost? Apparently he cut out whiskey. Didn’t realize we were rooting for a dork. Yeah maybe it’ll help him physically and mentally on and off the […]

Report: Phillies Looking For Middle Rotation Starter Via Trade


Last season started with hope and belief for the young Phillies rotation. But, that hope and belief quickly turned just as the Phillies record and season turned. Struggles on the mound had fans once again calling for improvements to another struggling rotation. On Wednesday, the Phillies made their first move of the offseason. A move […]

Andrew McCutchen Is Officially Hurt and It Sucks SO Bad


Cutch got caught in a run down Monday night against the Padres and he grabbed his knee after being tagged out. The video is weird. He may have twisted it at the end or when he turned around. The non-contact ones are always the worst. Today, the worst-case scenario for the Phillies occurred when they […]

Phillies Trade For Jay Bruce Close to Being Finalized


So this was a trade that was done, then a trade that was talked about, then a trade that was probable and now…a trade being finalized. Well, the Phillies are 1 for 1 on fire sale trades with the Mariners this year. If Jean Segura is everything we hoped JP Crawford was going to be, […]
