Supposed Phillies-Angels win-win trade looks much different after trade deadline activity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When the Phillies swapped Logan O’Hoppe for Brandon Marsh in a deal with the Los Angeles Angels in 2022, it was seen as a plus move for both sides. JT Realmuto was manning the starting catcher’s role for the Fightin’ Phils (he still is), and the team desperately needed big-league ready outfielders. So, despite O’Hoppe’s status as a can’t-miss prospect, they shipped him off to LA for a highly-regarded young player in Marsh. Marsh, who was 24 at the time, had hit .239 (126-for-528) with 10 home ru
Horrendous stat makes Phillies' lineup issues seem even worse than you thought (opens the original)

We knew that this Phillies team wasn't quite up to snuff (at least from a regular season perspective) with some of the recent renditions of the squad we’ve seen in the 2020s. That much was evident when they lost 10 straight games in April, their longest skid since 1999. But one stat in particular is a telling revelation of the depths of this group’s inadequacies: Philly’s combined Baseball-Reference.com WAR (bWAR) for its position players was 4.4 entering play on Tuesday night (a game that did n
Phillies top draft pick's back injury didn't diminish significant overslot signing bonus (opens the original)

Despite his back problems, the Phillies said ‘we got your back’ to top pick Tyler Spangler, inking him to a $3.25 million signing bonus Friday, nearly $500,000 more than the 36th pick’s slot value ($2,758,800). Philadelphia dropped from pick 26 to 36 due to a Competitive Balance Tax excession (they surpassed the second surcharge threshold of the CBT). Spangler, 18, missed his senior season due to a lingering back issue, which the Phillies declined to get into specifics about. Instead, they empha

What a season it’s been thus far for the Fightin’ Phils. In the beginning of the season, it looked as if their bark would be whittled to a whimper in 2026, with the squad opting to part ways with manager Rob Thomson in late April after a 9-19 start that included a 10-game losing streak. Then came May, which, along with the introduction of Don Mattingly to the manager’s position, sprung Philadelphia into a new gear. Philly went 18-10 in May, following that with another 18-win stretch in June (18-
Braves just tied a Phillies MLB Draft record with late-round spending spree (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Big spending seems to be a regular occurrence in the NL East. We watched the Mets open their pocketbooks for the largest contract in MLB history when they heaped $765 million in Juan Soto’s lap at the end of 2024. The Phillies, meanwhile, have seven players with contracts that total more than $100 million. But they haven’t limited large lump sums to their star players. Last year, Philadelphia set a record for the highest salary given to a seventh-round Draft pick when they inked righty Matthew F
