Kyle Schwarber on Tuesday signed a five-year, $150 million contract with the Phillies.

We discuss how it went down and why we like the deal. But we also discuss what’s next for the Phils. Is it J.T. Realmuto? Is it a reliever? Can they still go after Kyle Tucker, Alex Bregman, Bo Bichette and Cody Bellinger?

We have a feeling about Kyle Schwarber.

Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski does, too. He used the word “optimism” on Monday regarding the Phillies’ pursuit of Schwarber and J.T. Realmuto. Jim heard that Schwarber could make a decision before the end of the week. Todd heard that Schwarber thinks something with the Phillies will get done.

We talk about Don Mattingly being the Phils’ new bench coach, Nick Castellanos getting traded and more.

Everything hinges on Kyle Schwarber.

It can be said for the Phillies, and so many other teams at the Winter Meetings. Dribs and drabs of interest in Schwarber continue to make news, with Ken Rosenthal recently reporting that the Pirates have made a four-year offer for the slugging DH. But we still think Schwarber is headed back to Philadelphia. We explain why.

But what if Schwarber leaves? We offer some creative ways the Phillies can make up for it.

And does Jeff Kent’s induction into the Hall of Fame help Chase Utley’s chances?

The Winter Meetings begin Monday in Orlando, Fla.

WIP’s Joe DeCamara joins the show to talk about the Phillies’ quiet offseason so far, what he’d like to see happen next week, what he thinks about the Phillies “running it back” and more. Plus, DeCamara talks about his new book “The Best of Philly Sports.”

Jim then tries to beat The Hammer with Phillies trivia.

Can you beat The Hammer?

The Winter Meetings are next week in Orlando, Fla., where magical things can happen.

Ranger Suárez could have a magical winter, following Dylan Cease’s seven-year $210 million contract with the Blue Jays. Suárez is arguably the best starting pitcher remaining in free agency, unless Framber Valdez is more your speed.

Kyle Schwarber and J.T Realmuto remain free agents. We discuss the latest, which included an unexpected scenario from Ruben – Schwarber and Realmuto to the Reds? He thinks it would make sense for the Reds. It would, but do they have the money to do it?

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!

We got together to give thanks to baseball, and answer your Phillies questions.

What are we thankful for? Do the Phillies have enough payroll flexibility to get another big bat beyond Kyle Schwarber and J.T. Realmuto? What’s up with Harrison Bader? Is Andrew Painter going to be better than … Spencer Howard?

And much more!

If you thought the Phillies and Kyle Schwarber would sign a multiyear contract shortly after free agency started, think again.

We still think Schwarber will re-sign with the Phillies, but right now his agency is trying to maximize his value -- as they should. That means drawn-out negotiations, and maybe even a little frustration on the Phillies’ end. It’s rally no surprise. Schwarber had a massive 2025, leading the NL in home runs and RBIs and finishing second for NL MVP. He needs to cash in on this deal. But again, we think the roads point to Schwarber’s return to Philly.

We talk about recent moves the Mets and Braves have made in the NL East and more.

The Hot Stove is on a low simmer with Thanksgiving fast approaching.

But there are interesting reports out there. How about the Pirates pursuing Kyle Schwarber? We’ll eat our shoes if that one happens, but it is worth discussing. We talk about Schwarber’s free agency, who got qualifying offers, who the Phillies protected in the Rule 5 Draft, the non-tender deadline and more.

The GM Meetings wrapped up this week in Las Vegas. Dave Dombrowski spoke about the team’s outfield situation, including what’s happening in center field, Nick Castellanos’ future with the team and more. We thought the most interesting news was word that Twins star Byron Buxton might be willing to waive his no-trade clause, if Minnesota continues to sell this offseason.

We’d love Buxton in the Phillies’ lineup.

But if not Buxton, who? We discuss Justin Crawford, Harrison Bader and more.
