Can The Phillies Get Better? (PST Episode 672)
The Philadelphia Phillies are playing some pretty good baseball this season since interim manager Don Mattingly has taken over. But the real question is: can the Phillies become a better team as the season goes on? This week, Philly sports beat reporter and contributor over at ESPN’s 97.3 FM joined us this week to dive into this team as the guys tried to find answers to that question.
But first, Jeff and Erik got into some top storylines from the Eagles OTA session. (Approx. 4:55)
From there, they discussed the first Flyers trade of the offseason as the team seemingly got better at the goalie position. (Approx. 13:55)
The guys then got into some Sixers talk as the NBA Draft is around the corner. Who might the 76ers take with the No. 22 overall pick? (Approx. 20:40)
The guys also dove into their “Hate To See It, Love To See It” segment! (Approx. 28:35)
What they threw down on the Table this week was a great and in-depth discussion with Philly sports beat reporter Jeff Kerr about the direction the Phillies are heading, and if the team can get better as the season moves along. What should the team do long-term now that Adolis Garcia is out for the season? What the heck is going on with Trea Turner’s season? Thoughts on J.T. Realmuto’s downslide of a year. What kind of trades might Dave Dombrowski make at the trade deadline? All of this and much more this week on the Table! (Approx. 48:55)
