Hittin' Season: A Philadelphia Phillies podcast

On Episode 809 of Hittin' Season, hosts John Stolnis, Justin Klugh and Liz Roscher ask a few important questions. Who's had the better April, Alec Bohm or Ranger Suarez?

On episode 808 of Hittin' Season, hosts Justin Klugh and Liz Roscher talk about the Phillies' four-game series split with the Reds in Cincinnati--what worked (Alec Bohm, Zack Wheeler, Bryce Harper's dad strength) and what didn't (Seranthony Dominguez, Rob Thomson's decision-making). Then, Justin talks to Phillies minor league evaluator Mitch Rupert about prospect Gabriel Rincones, Jr.'s recent 500+ foot home run.

On Episode 807, John Stolnis of The Good Phight and BillyPenn.com opens up the Hittin' Season mailbag, grouses about Rob Thomson's lineups for Tuesday and Wednesday night's losses to the Reds, as well as yet another seemingly endless slump by Nick Castellanos.

Plus, thoughts on the future of umpiring in MLB given some disastrous performances by the dudes calling the balls and strikes.

On Episode 805 of Hittin' Season, hosts Justin Klugh and Liz Roscher go down the Phillies' struggling batting order and talk about who is doing their job, who is still scuffling, who is perhaps starting to turn a corner--and why.

Host John Stolnis recaps the Phillies' three-game sweep of the Rockies, lauding the starting pitching, with special bouquets thrown to Ranger Suarez. Plus, former 94 WIP afternoon host Jon Marks joins the show for his thoughts on the pitching, the bats breaking out, the future of Nick Castellanos and what lies ahead for the Phils.

Presented by WHYY & BillyPenn.com, hosts John Stolnis of The Good Phight, Justin Klugh from Baseball Prospectus and Liz Roscher of Yahoo!

April Phillies will drive you crazy.

On Episode 802 of Hittin' Season, hosts Justin Klugh and Liz Roscher laud the Phillies' starting rotation for its MLB-best numbers and discuss the merits of "fixing" the Phillies' free-swinging offensive approach... or letting them off the leash.

Host John Stolnis is joined by Fangraphs' Michael Baumann to discuss the recent string of big-name superstar pitchers to go down with elbow injuries, some of them requiring Tommy John surgery. Also, John recaps the big storylines from the Phillies series win over the Cardinals, and talks a little Mike Trout trade, too.

Hosts John Stolnis of The Good Phight, Justin Klugh from Baseball Prospectus and Yahoo! Sports' Liz Roscher talk about the Spencer Strider injury and what it means for the Phillies chances of winning the division. Also, the Phillies win a series in Washington, but should we expect more?
