I think we can see a return of the 2022 Reddick.

That said, seemingly favoring keeping Reddick over Sweat is a gamble.

Big grand slam for Sosa. He's probably safe because the guys who might be betters hitters (Wilson, Kingery) don't have the same positional fit/positional flexibility that he does.

Walker gets his first two innings under his belt, which is a good sign.

At what point does Eduardo Sosa not hitting this spring (now .150) become a concern, given that I don't think he was a slam dunk in the first place for the roster.

Ranger Suarez needs to be the next extension. Only have him for 2 more seasons. Lock him up.

If Snell falls into their lap with something similar to the Bellinger contract -- 3 years with opt-outs after years 1 and 2 -- I could see them loading up and going for it. It might take Wheeler-Nola-Snell-Suarez to get past LA or Atlanta in a seven-game series. But I'd only put it at 5%. Besides th...

Had to do it and well-deserved. Does make you wonder if that fully closes the door on any further pitching upgrades. The only thing we don't know right now is if Walker being slightly banged up means he'll miss the start of the season. If it's just a couple/few weeks, I they they can survive with s...

3 years, $126 million .... $42 million per year Phillies pay premium to (1) keep Wheeler, (2) keep the deal shorter, (3) get his continuing peak years. One way to look at it is that the Phillies will now have had 8 years of Wheeler at $244 million, which works out to $30.5 million per season. Not bad.

As yet ANOTHER round of Blake Snell/Phillies rumors hit social media, my only comment is that the information we're not privy to is: -- Status of Phillies/Wheeler extension talks -- Taijuan Walker health (which does NOT seem like anything serious) If Snell is available now and the Phillies feel like...

"Kenny Acuña, brother of Ronald and Luisangel Acuña, has verbally agreed to join #Phillies and wouldn't be eligible to formally sign until international free agent class in January 2028." I actually hate this. I don't want the Phillies or any other team doing this. The kid is like 13 years...

Sanchez picks up where he left off. Incredibly efficient 2IP, only the one hit and a K with 19 pitches. Turner doubles deep to score Castro. 1-0. Winkelman is expressing mild concern that while Sanchez has added velocity, his pitches have also flattened out a bit. He's lost some of his vertical mov...
