The Philadelphia Phillies are getting closer to the MLB trade deadline, and so far, they have yet to make a splash. They have some clear needs despite being on

If the Phillies want to win their first World Series since 2008, they are going to have to address two familiar bugaboos. The bullpen has once again been a work in progress, as Jordan Romano has failed to replace departed closer Jeff Hoffman and lefty specialist Jose Alvarado will be ineligible for postseason play after receiving an 80-game PED suspension.

Tonight’s MLB slate features the New York Yankees facing their rival, the Philadelphia Phillies, on the MLB Friday Night Baseball slate.

Kyle Schwarber hit a pair of two-run homers and J.T. Realmuto followed the Yankees’ ninth error in four games with a tiebreaking, three-run drive in a four-run seventh inning, lifting the Philadelphia Phillies over New York 12-5.

Is there a more obvious buyer in baseball than the Philadelphia Phillies? A handful of other teams just might be on the same level, but no one is more heavily in the category of buyer.  Consider that the Phillies made the World Series in 2022,

Edmundo Sosa's checked swing resulted in catcher's interference with bases loaded, giving the Phillies a bizarre 3-2 walk-off win over the Red Sox in a scenario not seen since 1971.

On Friday night, Kyle Schwarber notched his 1,000th career hit, and a fan had a very specific request to exchange the ball.
