About this episode

The episode discusses the Phillies' poor start to the season, analyzing their offensive struggles, pitching issues, and player injuries.

It’s not good, folks. The Phillies rank toward the bottom in baseball in most offensive categories. They have one of the highest ERAs in baseball. They rank as one of the worst defenses. They’re 8-10. They’ve been in worse spots before, but the longer this continues the more people wonder if they will dig out of it. We talk about everything that’s gone wrong, and who shoulders the blame. We also discuss Jesús Luzardo’s troubling start, Zack Wheeler’s return to the rotation, Aidan Miller’s chronic back injury and more. One thing to pack, five ways to power!
