Show notes

The Phillies beat the Nationals in 10 innings on Opening Day, 7-3.

We dissect Opening Day because who doesn’t love digging deep into the first game of the season and trying to figure out what it might mean moving forward? From Alec Bohm’s latest clutch hit to the nasty shadows at Nationals Park to Jordan Romano’s sluggish debut to Bryce Harper’s and Kyle Schwarber’s homers to José Alvarado’s scintillating fastball, we’ve got you covered.

Last Day in Clearwater: Opening Day roster crystalizes Mar 24, 2025

Show notes

The Phillies play their final Grapefruit League game on Monday in Clearwater. Afterward, they’re flying to Philadelphia.

Opening Day is Thursday in DC.

The roster is almost entirely set. Ranger Suárez is expected to open the season on the IL, moving Taijuan Walker into the rotation. The Phils claimed right-hander Carlos Hernández off waivers from Kansas City. He’ll take the last job in the bullpen as Tyler Phillips got DFA’d. The last spot on the team is between Kody Clemens and Buddy Kennedy.

We dig into the roster and how Rob Thomson said he might use two lineups to open the season.

Garrett Stubbs is optioned, reacts to news on show Mar 21, 2025

Show notes

Shortly after the Phillies optioned Garrett Stubbs to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday, he joined The Phillies Show to talk about a difficult day, how he plans to tackle his new job in Triple-A, what he will miss most in the Phillies’ clubhouse and more.

Stubbs is one of the most popular players in the Phillies’ clubhouse in recent memory, and it’s not just because he curated the “Phils Win” playlist on Spotify and celebrated clinchers with the best of them. He worked hard behind the scenes, helping pitchers prepare for their starts and more. He brought a lot to the table, and some of those qualities showed during his chat with us.

Ranger Suárez’s sore back; Taijuan Walker to the rotation? Mar 20, 2025

Show notes

Now we know why Phillies manager Rob Thomson hasn’t announced his rotation beyond Opening Day starter Zack Wheeler.

Ranger Suárez has a sore back again. We will know more in the next 24 to 48 hours, but there’s a chance he might not be ready to start the season. If Suárez can’t make his first turn (or more) in the rotation, who’s next in line? Yep, it’s Taijuan Walker. We talk about Suárez’s health, Walker’s ability to step up and more, including José Alvarado’s curveball and a Phillies-themed run through the NCAA basketball tournament bracket.

Opening Day is 10 days away. Where do roster battles stand? Mar 17, 2025

Show notes

Where do the Phillies’ roster battles stand with Opening Day 10 days away? It is going to be Rafael Marchán or Garrett Stubbs as backup catcher? Is the bench going into include Kody Clemens and Buddy Kennedy? Does Johan Rojas make the team, even though the Phillies want to see if Brandon Marsh can be an everyday player? What about the last bullpen job, assuming Matt Strahm opens the season on the injured list?

It’s “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza! Manco’s is the Best of the Best, and every week throughout the season we pick our best Phillies players, performances and moments of the week. This week, Jim talks about the entire pitching staff, Todd shouts out Trea Turner and Ruben gives José Alvarado some love.

Maybe Citizens Bank Park isn’t a homer park after all. Todd wrote a story about it. The guys discussed it.

Trea Turnin’ the corner? Turner is finding his way in Clearwater Mar 14, 2025

Show notes

Trea Turner is probably going to be the Phillies’ leadoff hitter on Opening Day.

He came to camp trying to make better decisions at the plate, and trying to hit the ball to the opposite field more. He hasn’t seen many positive results so far, although Thursday he homered, walked and had a sacrifice fly. We talk about Turner’s spring and comments hitting coach Kevin Long recently made about Turner’s performance in Florida.

Would Bryce Harper really move to the outfield this season, if the Phillies can acquire a power-hitting first baseman? He says yes.

Plus, Jimmy Rollins and Ed Wade will be inducted onto the Wall of Fame this summer.

Opening Day is only 15 days away.

Matt Strahm is down, but for how long? Mar 10, 2025

Show notes

The Phillies have had a pretty quiet camp in Clearwater, Fla., but they’ve just had their first hiccup.

All-Star lefty Matt Strahm is experiencing a left shoulder issue, which could force him to open the season in the injured list. Strahm had an MRI exam, which revealed no structural damage, but an impingement has caused inflammation. He is not going to throw until Thursday at the earliest. We talk about Strahm’s injury and what it might mean for the bullpen in the short term.

Plus, the latest on Alec Bohm, Ranger Suárez, Taijuan Walker and more.
