I think that one thing #PhilliesSky can all agree on is that Bryson Stott needs to definitively pick a new walk up song. I'm done. I never want to hear it again.

Painter more with the Wheeler/Nola uncertainty. If Crawford is a starter on opening day, he should be batting 9th.

Lack of hitting is a MLB problem, not just a Phillies problem. A good number of teams would love to have a lineup with Schwarber, Turner and Harper 1-3. Bichette in there would have been game changing, but not for that stupid contract he got, and I'm still not sure where he was going to play.

I'm excited in the sense that we've got a season coming up where the Phillies should be good and who knows if/when we get a season in 2027.

It's a great gimmick for anyone who loves baseball played at a high level. And I don't even see it as all that gimmicky because I always saw it as an alternative to Olympic Baseball, which MLB players could have never participated in because of the regular season.

I think the Mets are going to be a disaster. Braves? We'll see.

People who think that the 2026 Phillies are a mid team that might not make the playoffs don't know shit about baseball.

Your brother is so wrong about the WBC. It's one of the best things MLB has ever done in my opinion.

Hey, I tried to find a good Larry Hisle pic, but couldn't find anything where you could see his number. Not too many good choices for #4.
