Finally, our winter of discontent has ended and I can’t believe I feel pretty good about the Phillies. The lineup has its issues, but that pitching staff??? Oh baby!!! Opening Day is set for Thursday, March 26 at 4:10pm against the Texas Rangers and I can’t wait. Let’s get you all ready for the season by previewing out division rivals, the Phillies, and the final boss, the Dodgers.

News:

  • Flyers
    • Get busy living, or get busy dying
    • The Flyers are one of 8 teams vying for 5 playoff spots in the East and I really miss being in the playoffs
  • Sixers
    • Basically, guaranteed to make the play-in but half the team is still hurt
    • Our destiny is the Knicks, the Celtics, the Pistons, or a 2.4% to 4.8% chance to keep out 1st round pick
  • Eagles
    • Darius Slay retires because the Bills are bitches
    • Dallas Goedert returns and changes everything
    • Filling in the gaps for Draft Freedom!
    • AJ Brown handshake agreement? (I forgot to get into it, but this would be the most logical explanation for all the rumors that keep not coming true, like a missing puzzle piece)
  • Phillies
    • WBC was probably the best possible outcome for Phillies fans
    • Dylan Moore forces the Phillies hand
    • Pitching looks great

Almanac

  • Darius Slay came to the Phillies 6 years ago
