The Phillies entered the All-Star break with a half-game lead over the Mets in the NL East. That’s good. They have an historically dominant starting rotation. That’s really good. But they also have an inconsistent offense and shaky bullpen that desperately needs help before the July 31 trade deadline. We look back at the good and bad from the Phillies’ first half. We name our first half MVP and Cy Young. We discuss our biggest surprise and biggest disappointment. We discuss our 2025 bold predictions from our 2025 season preview show in March!

We even dig into the 2025 Draft.

The Phillies open a three-game series on Friday night against the Padres, but that’s not what’s on everybody’s mind.

It’s the July 31 trade deadline.

We know the Phillies need help in the bullpen. We know they could use help offensively. But ask several of your questions about what might happen in the next couple weeks.

San Francisco isn’t a great place for the Phillies.

It has been a house of horrors for more than a decade. It continued this week at Oracle Park, where the Phillies lost the series opener on Monday (thanks to a Phil Cuzzi’s strike zone), and Tuesday, when they lost on a three-run, inside-the-park home run. We talk about everything that happened, including Wednesday’s series finale.

Bryce Harper had a HUGE game.

Is a big second half from Harper on the horizon?

If you had a ticket to Sunday’s series finale between the Phillies and Reds, you were lucky.

You got to watch Zack Wheeler pitch his first complete game since 2021, and come one Austin Hays homer from a perfect game. Wheeler showed again why he not only is one of the best pitchers in baseball, but why he should start for the NL in next weeks’ All-Star Game in Atlanta and why he could be headed to Cooperstown, N.Y., one day.

We talk Wheeler, Trea Turner not making the All-Star team, concerns about Ranger Suárez and Jesús Luzardo, Taijuan Walker rejoining the rotation and more!

The Phillies can make a strong argument to have multiple starting pitchers make the NL All-Star team.

Zack Wheeler and Ranger Suárez are candidates for NL Pitcher of the Month for June. Wheeler is a NL Cy Young candidate, too. Cristopher Sánchez has dazzled. Jesús Luzardo has bounced back from two terrible starts. But rookie Mick Abel’s recent struggles continued in Game 1 of Wednesday’s doubleheader. Does Abel make another start before the All-Star break? Or is it time to promote top prospect Andrew Painter, who is scheduled to start Thursday with Triple-A Lehigh Valley?

Brandon Marsh has been playing well since he returned from the IL in early May. Does his performance change how the Phils view the July 31 trade deadline?

Plus, who are the Phillies’ NL All-Stars?

The Phillies salvaged a six-game road trip by winning two of three this weekend in Atlanta.

They scored 13 runs on Friday, but only three runs the rest of the weekend. What can save this Phillies’ offense? It should help to get Bryce Harper back in the lineup. He could return as early as Monday night’s series opener against the Padres. But really this team is going to live and die with what they already have: Harper, Kyle Schwarber, Trea Turner, Nick Castellanos, Alec Bohm, etc. And maybe Otto Kemp. And maybe Justin Crawford. The external options to improve this lineup don’t seem to be there, unless you think Jarren Duran, Taylor Ward, Cedric Mullins, Luis Robert Jr., Adolis Garcia are difference makers.

Ranger Suárez is on another ridiculous run. What contract might he get in free agency?

This is the biggest fear for Phillies fans.

It’s October and the Phillies’ rotation dominates its opponent in the NL Wild Card Series or NL Division Series. But the offense can’t string hits together and the Phils take another early October exit, forcing difficult decisions to be made in the offseason. It could happen again. It certainly happened this week in Houston. The Phillies allowed only five runs in the three-game series, but the offense scored only one. It’s just the 10th time since 1901 that a team allowed five or fewer runs in a series and got swept.

Is it time to make a change? Is it time for Justin Crawford?

Plus, we answer a few of your leftover questions from earlier this week.
