The Braves’ nightmarish start to the season has gotten even worse
The Phillies are 3-1, but if you’re the type of fan who must always seek out the negatives, there have been things to not like. Trea Turner and J.T. Realmuto have been banged up, if minor. Ranger Suárez is on the shelf. They haven’t hit starters well. The one loss, I guess.

Phillies’ probable starters to open regular season announced, with lefties and righties split
Rob Thomson has hinted that he may want to split up the righties and lefties in the Phillies’ starting rotation, and it seems that’s what he’ll do: Jesús Luzardo, Aaron Nola and Cristopher Sánchez, in that order, will likely follow Opening Day starter Zack Wheeler to begin the regular season.

Ranger Suárez: ‘All I think about’ is staying with Phillies
The Phillies have three key players slated for free agency this coming offseason and three decisions to make regarding whether to try and keep them from getting there. Between Kyle Schwarber, J.T. Realmuto and Ranger Suárez, it’s not hard to imagine that the least likely to get an extension, as of now, is Suárez.
J.T. Realmuto aces first 2 ABS challenges
One of the more interesting storylines to follow the rest of the spring, and then again next season, assuming implementation, is which Phillies will have Rob Thomson’s blessing to contest balls and strikes via the ABS challenge system. Maybe it’s all situation-dependent — or maybe, say, Kyle Schwarber has a privilege that, say, Trea Turner doesn’t.

Phillies announce 2025 Truck Day programming ahead of spring training

Ruben Amaro Jr. co-founds new game geared toward situational hitting
Baseball has changed quite a bit since Ruben Amaro Jr. left his post as Phillies general manager almost a decade ago. The game’s shift toward launch, home runs and the three true outcomes — whatever your stance on that new offensive approach — is clearly one of those ways.
