The Phillies’ Last Push: Division, Wild Card or Bust? (PST Episode 682)

The Philadelphia Phillies are trying to figure it all out as they’re coming up to September and making a push for the postseason. It’s the Phillies last push for the division, wild card…or is it bust? This week, friend of the pod Eric Moratelli - you can find him over on Substack - @emoratelli - joined us for a discussion about the pitching and batting we’ve seen as of late, and how the Phils are trying to push ahead.
But first, Jeff and Erik got into some Listener Feedback about the high cost of youth sports. (Approx. 3:05)
From there, they discussed the high cost of concessions at the Eagles public practice this past week, and preseason storylines they’re following as the preseason starts wrapping up. (Approx. 10:55)
The guys then dove into their “Hate To See It, Love To See It” segment. (Approx. 26:30)
The Phillies signed Nestor Cortes to be a contributing pitcher down the stretch, yet he’s now on the IL. Can the Phillies starting rotation keep it together? (Approx. 38:50)
What they threw down on the Table this week was a great discussion with friend of the pod Eric Moratelli about how this Phillies team will need to perform down the stretch if they’re to make it to the postseason. Assessing Aaron Nola’s turnaround. What has happened to Zack Wheeler? Which hitters need to step up ad which ones have been surprising? All of this and much more this week on the Table! (Approx. 43:05)
