We won't waste too much space on the catcher spot, which will be identical this season. J.T. Realmuto and Garrett Stubbs will be the backstops after pretty good 2022 seasons. Realmuto remains in legitimate "best catcher in baseball" territory.
Hard to argue otherwise here. Trea Turner is an upgrade over Didi Gregorius. Having Bryson Stott playing a more comfortable second base role is an upgrade from last year (though Jean Segura was very good, especially in the playoffs). And Alec Bohm really seems to have gotten better playing third base defensively. This unit should be better both at ...
The Phillies will have a similar situation this year to the one they had last year. They'll have Kyle Schwarber and Nick Castellanos at the corner outfield spots for about half the season, with hopefully a half-season of Bryce Harper mixed in due to his injury recovery. The difference in 2023 is they will have a full season of Brandon Marsh, as opp...
We don't know what the 2023 bench will look like yet. We do know that Nick Maton and Vierling won't be on it, as they were traded away. We do know that the team loves Edmundo Sosa and he will have a role on the bench. Josh Harrison was signed as a free agentwho can play multiple positions. But beyond that, there will be an open competition for what...
In 2023 Philly will return Zack Wheeler, Aaron Nola and Ranger Suárez as the top three starters. The front office spent $72 million on Taijuan Walker, so clearly they think he's an upgrade over Noah Syndergaard. And the last spot, well, it seems pretty likely that one of the team's young stud prospects — Mick Abel, Andrew Painter or Griff McGarry —...
Dave Dombrowski and co. spent considerable resources and time overhauling the bullpen from a year ago. Via our own 2023 26-man roster projections, here's how we see the unit shaping up for the upcoming season with very few openings for Spring Training position battles: Of course, as we mentioned with the starters, the Phillies will need depth and t...

May 18, 2023 · If there is a stat that defines the Phillies' 20-23 start and streaky nature it's the slash lines of their hitters and pitchers with runners in scoring position.

Oct 6, 2023 · The Phillies will have to take down the NL East Champion Atlanta Braves in what is shaping up to be a bloodbath of a series. The Braves will come into the series hungry for revenge after the 2022 NLDS. Meanwhile, the Phillies have developed a taste for the World Series atmosphere and are looking to return to the dance once more this season.
Mar 24, 2023 · 3. deGrom up first. The Phillies are expected to face deGrom on opening day. He signed a five-year deal with Texas for $185 million in December. Bryce Harper (12-for-41, .293) is the only current Phillie who has had a modicum of success against deGrom and, of course, Harper will not play in the opener.
