The Phillies Show

The Brewers just won their first World Series in franchise history. 

If you watched the series, then you might have noticed how the Brewers hit, play defense, run the bases and pitch out of the bullpen. They outclassed everybody in the postseason, and you couldn’t help but think about how much ground the Phillies need to make up to beat them. Can they do it?

We also talk about our favorite postseason moments, the Phillies’ new hitting coach, the beginning of the offseason and more.

Top Phillies prospect Aidan Miller is healthy again, and he’s showing in the Arizona Fall League why Dave Dombrowski thinks he could be a significant contributor on the 26-man roster in 2027.

It’s not a stretch to think Miller could be the Phillies’ Opening Day third baseman, even though he missed almost the entire 2026 season because of a back injury. But Miller said he feels fine these days and he’s got a program he thinks will keep him on the field for the foreseeable future. Miller talks about his health, the AFL, his approach to hitting, his mindset running the bases and much more.

Dave Dombrowski spoke late last week about his future plans for the Phillies, and you’ve got questions about it.

It starts with Trea Turner and how the Phillies plan to handle him next spring and summer? Can Turner handle the pressure? What’s the team’s backup plan if he can’t play better defensively? But you also asked about the Phillies’ perfect offseason. Which free agents should they sign? Can they get Randy Arozarena or Seiya Suzuki? Should they bring back Alec Bohm and Luis Arraez? How do they improve the bullpen?

Is Dombrowski being held accountable for his job performance?

Dave Dombrowski spoke for more than an hour on Thursday at Citizens Bank Park.

What’s his plan for the Phillies’ offseason? He talked about payroll, why he won’t trade his superstars, why he won’t trade from his starting pitching, why he is challenging Trea Turner to play better shortstop and more.

We discuss what Dombrowski might do this winter. We discuss the Phillies’ coaching changes. They fired Kevin Long and Bobby Dickerson. We discuss Don Mattingly’s return, and how he thinks he can get the Phillies to play better next year.

We’re still waiting to hear something -- anything -- from Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski about the future of the franchise, including the fate of interim manager Don Mattingly. Dombrowski hasn’t spoken since the Phillies got bounced in Game 3 of the NL Wild Card Series on Oct. 1.

In the meantime, Ruben, Jim and Todd ranked 24 Phillies from least likely to return in 2027 to most likely to return. We added up their individual rankings to come up with our five Phillies LEAST likely to be back next year. It’s a list that includes José Alvarado, Alec Bohm and Orion Kerkering.

But who else is on it?

Alex Cora isn’t interested in managing anybody next year, including the Phillies.

So, now that Dave Dombrowski’s No. 1 choice isn’t available, will the Phils finally remove the interim tag from Don Mattingly’s title? Signs point to the Phillies naming Mattingly their manager, but there’s still a chance Dombrowski begins a managerial search.

We discuss Cora, Mattingly, Dombrowski’s standing with the Phillies and more.

It’s been four days since the Phillies lost Game 3 of the NL Wild Card Series to the Atlanta Braves? Do you feel any differently about the future of the franchise?

We discuss the tall task facing Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski this offseason. Does he trade Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber or Trea Turner to shake up the offense? Does he deal closer Jhoan Duran, who will be a free agent following the 2027 season? What about dealing from their strength -- the starting rotation?

Would you deal Zack Wheeler, Cristopher Sánchez or Jesús Luzardo?

Don Mattingly’s future remains a topic of conversation until Dombrowski talks about it, too.

It's over. Now what?

The Phillies lost Game 3 of the NL Wild Card Series on Thursday night, 6-2. They've now lost four consecutive postseason series: 2023 NLCS, 2024 NLDS, 2025 NLDS and 2026 NL WCS. The team is getting older, while the postseason runs are getting shorter.

It's not great.

Will Don Mattingly be back?

Will any of the free agents be back in Luis Arraez, Alec Bohm, Jose Alvarado and Edmundo Sosa?

What do you think should happen, understanding multiyear contracts can't just be moved with a snap of a finger and a weak farm system can't fix everything? We discuss the clubhouse scene with thoughts from Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, J.T. Realmuto, Trea Turner, Zack Wheeler, Aaron Nola and more.

Can you take another game like this?

The Phillies beat the Braves in Game 2 of the NL Wild Card Series on Wednesday in Atlanta, forcing a win-or-go-home Game 3 on Thursday night. Bryce Harper misplayed a ball in right field in the seventh, then hit a game-tying homer in the eight. Alec Bohm made a poor decision on a bunt play in the seventh, then hit the game-winning homer in the 10th. Kyle Schwarber crushed a homer in the eight to cut the Braves lead to one. Cristopher Sánchez had a fantastic performance. But then so did Andrew Painter.

Jim breaks the news that Aaron Nola will start Game 3. But who else will be available?
