Hittin' Season: A Philadelphia Phillies podcast

On this week’s Continued Success, the Phillies did virtually nothing 10 years ago at this time, which is exactly what the 2020 Phillies are up to! Instead, Justin Klugh and Liz Roscher discussed the hiring of Dusty Baker as the Astros’ new manager. Did they hire him to try to move on from the ugly, embarrassing cheating scandal that ruined the integrity of baseball? Is it even possible for the Astros to move on from this? Should we let them? They also chat about the Red Sox trying to trade Mookie Betts (boo, but also yay?) and wonder if Joe Girardi is the best managerial hire of the offseason. All that and more on this week’s Continued Success!

On this week’s Continued Success, Justin Klugh and Liz Roscher discussed all the moves the Phillies haven’t made this offseason, and they took a hard look at their own negativity about the 2020 Phillies. Looking back at the last decade of Phillies teams, they wonder: can a bad team ever truly be fun? They also discuss the new allegations that the 2018 Red Sox used technology to cheat, and consider their own reaction if the Phillies had been caught doing the same thing — though first they have to imagine a world where the Phillies are capable of masterminding such a scheme.
