The Phillies have the best record in baseball. It is their best start since 1995. Everything is going smoothly. Right? Well, they learned Saturday that Trea Turner will miss at least six weeks with a strained left hamstring.

How well are the Phillies positioned to handle Turner's loss?

Taijuan Walker is back in the rotation. Walker's return has bumped Spencer Turnbull to the bullpen, but even Walker said Turnbull will be back at some point. Ruben, Jim and Todd discuss a "problem" that most teams would love to have. The gang looks ahead at this week's series against the Blue Jays, and Ruben shows everybody an awesome piece of Amaro family baseball memorabilia.

Ruben, Jim and Todd discuss his development, both offensively and defensively.

Of course, Ranger Suarez's ridiculous 32-inning scoreless streak is discussed, as well as Taijuan Walker's 2024 debut on Sunday in San Diego.

A few Phillies made some illuminating comments toward the end of a successful road trip this week in St. Louis. Specifically, they've been too tentative at the plate. Could the team's emphasis on reducing their chase rate taken away some of their aggressiveness at the plate?
