Breaking news: the Philadelphia Phillies have promoted AAA slugger Otto Kemp to the Major Leagues from the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. He'll join the Phillies in Pittsburgh and is expected to play 3rd base today. In a corresponding move, Bryce Harper is placed on the 10-day IL with a wrist injury.

Jesus Luzardo struggled for the second straight start, giving up 8 runs in less than 3 innings, as the Philadelphia Phillies drop the rubber match to the Toronto Blue Jays 9-1 and lose the series 2-1. What's going on with Luzardo right now? And what’s happening with the Phillies farm system? We’ll check in with Jake Starr, the Reading Fightin’ Phils director of media relations, to get the latest on the future Phils.

Bryce Harper returned to the Philadelphia Phillies lineup for the first time in over a week since being hit on the elbow with a pitch from Spencer Strider, and the Phillies offense delivered from the 1st inning! Six first inning runs, including back-to-back homeruns from Harper and Trea Turner. Cristopher Sanchez tossed six strong innings in the win over the Toronto Blue Jays.

The Philadelphia Phillies were swept out at home by the Milwaukee Brewers after a rough weekend all around. Jesus Luzardo gave up a career high 12 earned runs on Saturday, Weston Wilson and Trea Turner and critical mistakes on defense on Sunday and Rob Thomson was ejected after arguing a balk call. Overall, it was just a 204 homestand for the Phils. It's now time for the Phillies to regroup, as they turn their attention to the Toronto Blue Jays beginning tomorrow night.

The Philadelphia Phillies take another series victory, their ninth in ten tries, as they take 2/3 from the Atlanta Braves to begin the week. After winning the first game on Tuesday night, game two was postponed to a day-night double header on Thursday. The Phillies took game 1 of the series 5-4, behind a strong day from Rafael Marchan. They lost game 2 of the series 9-3, as Zack Wheeler was not his typical self, walking four Braves hitters. Chris Sale was excellent for the Braves, as they salvaged the final game of the series and avoid being swept.

In a rare down performance, Zack Wheeler struggled against the Braves offense in the fourth inning after cruising through the first 3. The Phillies fall 9-3 to the Braves in the second night of the double header, but still take the series against Atlanta. It’s the PHLY Phillies Postgame Show o break it all down.

The Philadelphia Phillies take game one of the series 2-0 against the Atlanta Braves, but Bryce Harper leaves the game early after being hit with a fastball from Spencer Strider. X-rays were negative, but we await an update on his status. Ranger Suarez was excellent again, throwing 6 shutout innings for the third time in four starts.

The Athletic and Jayson Stark produced their MLB quarter century teams, the best lineup and starting rotation possible from the players from 2000-2025. So, we thought it would be fun to come up with our Philadelphia Phillies quarter century team. From the obvious choices, like Chase Utley and Jimmy Rollins, to the more difficult ones, we’ve compiled the best starting 9, plus 5 man rotation, the Phillies could have produced in the last 25 years. Plus, the Phillies sweep out the Colorado Rockies and head to Sacramento to take on the Athletics riding a 7 game winning streak.
