Congratulations are in order for the Harper family.
The Philadelphia Phillies (0-0) host the Atlanta Braves (0-0) in an Opening Day game at 3:05 PM ET on Friday. The Braves will look to Spencer Strider against the Phillies and Zack Wheeler.
ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Jordan Luplow liked his place in Atlanta Braves camp in Sarasota County, Florida. The right-handed batter hit left-handed pitchers, as usual, during Spring Training but fared even better against righties.
Thursday was supposed to be Opening Day, but with rain in the forecast, the Philadelphia Phillies elected to push back their season-opener against the Atlanta Braves until Friday.
The start of the regular season has arrived, and there are Philadelphia Phillies who can elevate their game this season. These players will be having a breakout season this year.
Does a rough finish indicate a slow start to the season? The Phillies started Spring Training well enough, with a 4-2-3 record over the first 8 days. Things went downhill from there however, going 5-13-4 the rest of the way, including a particularly uninspiring finish: They finished with 9 wins, tied for the fewest in all of MLB.
ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Scott Kingery was ready to be a free agent. After spending last season — the final guaranteed year of the six-year, $24 million contract he signed in 2018 before he ever played a major-league game — entirely in the minors, the utility man and former top prospect had figured his time in the Phillies organization was over.
Your staff is ready to go out on a limb for this coming season (don’t check these in September) In looking on the horizon at what lies ahead for the 2024 Phillies, there are predictions that anyone can make.
When the Philadelphia Phillies host the Atlanta Braves on Opening Day Friday, their uniforms won’t feature a jersey ad patch. But by the time the Phillies open the second half of the regular season in Pittsburgh on July 19, the organization might have an additional source of revenue via the ad patch.
Who do you think will be the “winner”? So close to Phillies Opening Day we can smell it! Fresh cut grass? Delicious food? A sense of relief baseball is back?
A rainy forecast forced the Philadelphia Phillies to postpone Thursday's Opening Day date with the visiting Atlanta Braves to Friday at 3:05 p.m. ET. Friday had previously been an open date, with the teams continuing their three-game series on Saturday and Sunday.
One of the most highly anticipated Opening Day matchups will go down in Philadelphia on Thursday when the Phillies host the Atlanta Braves. Philadelphia has defeated the Braves in the National League Division Series in each of the past two years, and it rode that momentum to a pair of deep playoff runs.
The Philadelphia Phillies are adjusting their roster because of the need to narrow to the 26-man roster for Opening Day. It is not uncommon to see teams make a lot of transactions in the days leading.
The Philadelphia Phillies optioned infielder Kody Clemens to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday. Clemens, the son of former pitcher Roger Clemens, hit .325 this spring with three home runs and 10 RBIs.
The Philadelphia Phillies conclude their spring training schedule Monday when they play the Tampa Bay Rays in the Grapefruit League finale. The Phillies will head to Atlanta on Thursday, March 28th to face the division rival Braves to kick off the season.
The deal makes plenty of sense for the Phillies.
The Philadelphia Phillies are dealing with injury concerns in the rotation as spring training wraps.
The Philadelphia Phillies had an offseason, kind of.
With Aaron Nola and Zack Wheeler both locked up for the foreseeable future, the Philadelphia Phillies already have their top two rotation spots spoken for. The All-Star duo will start the Phillies' first two games of the year against the Atlanta Braves when the season kicks off next week, and there was never any doubt about that.
Some Philadelphia Phillies are having a great spring training. A few of these players will be on the Opening Day roster, while others will not. While spring training may not be a good predictor of regular season success, it is helpful to have some momentum heading into the regular season.
The 32-year-old was an All-Star last season for the Detroit Tigers. He was then traded to the Philadelphia Phillies at the deadline and threw a surprise no-hitter in August.
It's almost that time when teams around the league get down to the requisite 26-man roster before Opening Day, and the Philadelphia Phillies got a whole lot closer after their recent cuts.
The Philadelphia Phillies team that entered spring training in 2024 looks a whole lot like the squad that lost in the 2023 NLCS. You could argue that’s a bad thing; what is the offseason for, if not improving the roster?
Will the upcoming 2024 NL campaign be special for Bryce Harper? Oddsmakers are apparently expecting big things from the Philadelphia Phillies hitter.
Bryce Harper missed his third straight Grapefruit League game on Sunday with back stiffness and will miss his fourth consecutive game on Monday, according to Phillies manager Rob Thomson.
