If everybody does their thing, the Phillies’ rotation is the team’s strength in 2026.

There are questions, but the early performances from Cristopher Sanchez, Jesus Luzardo, Aaron Nola, Andrew Painter and Taijuan Walker have been encouraging. And so has the work of Zack Wheeler.

We also discuss Jhoan Duran’s first spring appearance, Bryce Harper’s spring and the World Baseball Classic.

The Phillies are reeling just days before Monday’s 6 p.m. ET trade deadline.

Phillies interim manager Don Mattingly said four times in 90 seconds on Wednesday in Miami that they will learn what the Phillies are made of in the coming days, weeks and months. So, what are the Phillies made of?

We also discuss Bryce Harper, Don Mattingly, Dave Dombrowski and the trade deadline. Daulton Varsho? Taylor Ward? Zach Neto? What about the arms?

Don Mattingly wants to know what the Phillies are made of

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/8225cf0b-a806-4a14-a750-b498000f6930/transcript

The Phillies are 3-8 since the All-Star break, and they have scored zero or one runs in six of those games.Everybody sees what’s going on. Everybody knows what the Phillies need. Bryce Harper spoke candidly about it following Tuesday night’s 1-0 loss to the Marlins in Miami.

“I think we need some help,” Harper said. “But you know, I think we've proved pretty much all year we've done a pretty good job. But anytime you can get some help in here and reinforcements, I think it helps.”

They need an outfielder, for sure. The Phillies have one of the worst outfields in franchise history right now. But they also need a No. 5 starter and a reliever. The pressure is on Dave Dombrowski to make it happen.

Bryce Harper knows it, too. The Phillies "need some help."

The Phillies’ window to win the World Series with this core is closing, so they need to do what they can before the Aug. 3 trade deadline. They need to make trades.

Baseball America wrote something recently that backed up Ruben’s take last week that the Phillies need to be bold … prospects almost never come back to haunt the teams that traded them. So the Phillies need to be aggressive, make trades and do what they can to give themselves the best chance to win.

We also discuss the Phillies’ 3-6 homestand, and the upcoming series in Miami.
