Phillies superstar Bryce Harper is correct. The Phillies need help at the Trade deadline coming up next week. But what kind of help can they actually get with a poor farm system? Black Gritty joins the show to discuss the Trade Deadline, frustrations with this team's run of play, including getting swept by the Marlins, and much more!

The Philadelphia Phillies and MLB are just two weeks away from the 2026 Trade Deadline. The Phillies need help at the big league level in several spots, so which Phillies prospects could be on the move this Summer, and which players, if any, are truly untouchable? Would you move prospects like Aidan Miller or Gage Wood? How about Francisco Renteria?

Plus, Lebron James signs with the Sixers, so we had to open the show with that conversation!

The Philadelphia Phillies are in need of bullpen help at the MLB Trade Deadline now, after Brad Keller suffered a torn UCL and will likely miss the rest of the season. The Phillies, who's bullpen numbers, aside from Jhoan Duran and Jonathan Bowlan, aren't great, will be searching for help, but have limited prospect talent to make trades with.

The Philadelphia Phillies still have have flaws, no doubt. But the combination of Zack Wheeler, Cristopher Sanchez and Jesus Luzardo, plus strong offensive months from Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber and Brandon Marsh, all played a big role in the Phillies finding success in June.

The issues still persist for Aaron nola and the back end of the Phillies rotation, and Jose Alvarado has struggled in his role against left handed hitters this year.

Can the Phillies find the right formula at the Trade Deadline to make this a World Series caliber roster?

On today's episode, I am proud to be joined by my father, Al Zulli, for a post-Father's Day podcast episode.

On this week's episode, I'm joined by Bob Cooney of OnPattison to discuss the historic scoreless streak by Cristopher Sanchez coming to an end after 50.2 innings, the fifth best all time. We also discussed the Phillies lack of offensive production despite a 20-10 record in May and early June, and broke down if their model of success the last 30 games in sustainable throughout the rest of the season.

On this week's episode, I break down Cristopher Sanchez's Phillies franchise record for consecutive scoreless innings, and why his command has been so important to his success. We also discuss the MLB's proposals for both a salary cap and salary floor in the latest CBA conversations.

On this week's episode, I ask the question "Are Cristopher Sanchez and Zack Wheeler the best starting pitching duo in all MLB?", discuss Aaron Nola's struggles with his fastball, Alec Bohm surge in the month of May, and Adolis Garcia's concerning, and rising, swing and miss rate.
