The Phillies need an absolute miracle to win the NL East after losing two of three this weekend in Atlanta. So, it’s NL Wild Card or bust. It won’t be easy. Jesús Luzardo has a sore left shoulder. The bullpen continues to blow leads. (They blew four saves in Atlanta.) They continue to make mistakes on the bases. And they haven’t been having the at-bats they had in August. It’s “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza ! Manco’s is the Best of the Best, and every week throughout the season we pick our best Phillies players, performances and moments of the week.

The Phillies’ offense flipped a switch in August. They weren’t chasing as much. They weren’t striking out as much. They were walking more, putting the ball in play more, getting on base more, scoring more. They were winning more. But those old, bad habits resurfaced in a 3-4 homestand. Can they get it turned around? We talk about the at-bats, the base running, Zack Wheeler’s bounceback, Jhoan Duran’s struggles with the splitter, the upcoming Braves series and more.

The fundamentals and the little things cost the Phillies in the 2025 NLDS against Shohei Ohtani and the Dodgers. It cost them again on Tuesday night in a 6-5 loss to the Astros. We dig into the Phillies’ latest base running blunders late in Tuesday's game, including Brandon Marsh getting double up at second base and Edmundo Sosa not hustling down the first-base line on a fly ball to deep right-center field in the ninth. We also talk about Andrew Painter’s start, Cristopher Sánchez start on Wednesday and how the Phillies might line up the rotation for the postseason.

The Phillies had high hopes to beat up the Braves this weekend and make a move in the NL East. Instead, it looks like the Phillies will have to settle on the NL Wild Card. The Phils lost two of their first three in a four-game series against the Braves at Citizens Bank Park, with the series finale on Monday afternoon. But a five-game deficit with 19 games to play is going to be difficult to overcome. Why? Well, if the Braves go just 9-10 the rest of the way, the Phillies would need to go 15-4 to win the division. What went wrong on Monday? Alex McFarlane served up a three-run homer to Ronald Acuña Jr. We talk about McFarlane, the bullpen, the division and much more. It’s “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza ! Manco’s is the Best of the Best, and every week throughout the season we pick our best Phillies players, performances and moments of the week.

The Phillies have won six in a row and 13 of 15 following Tuesday’s victory in August. They are baseball’s hottest team, moving ahead of the Cubs for the No. 1 NL Wild Card and three behind the Braves in the NL East. It’s great, but it’s what happens in October that matters most. What do we want to see from these Phillies in the final month of the season… besides wins, of course? Trea Turner getting on track? Alex McFarlane earning more of Don Mattingly’s trust? Zack Wheeler’s improvement? Andrew Painter building on what have been encouraging performances since he rejoined the team in late July? Plus, could Bryce Harper finish in the top three for NL MVP? Could Jesús Luzardo finish in the top three for NL Cy Young? This episode of The Phillies Show is powered by Monster Energy.

The Phillies swept the Angels in Anaheim on Sunday, following a huge grand slam with two outs in the ninth inning on Friday and another comeback victory on Saturday. They got a promising start from Zack Wheeler on Sunday. Is he back? “I’m still not out of it,” Wheeler said. But he certainly pitched better than he had lately. He helped the Phillies improve to 20-7 in August, which is the best record in baseball. They are third in baseball in runs this month. They are first in batting average. They are third in OPS. They are third in ERA. Maybe they’re peaking at the right time with the postseason a month away. We also talk about Andrew Painter’s wild start on Friday and more.

Where would the Phillies be without Jesús Luzardo, Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper. Each had big games on Wednesday in Seattle, helping the Phillies avoid a sweep. Luzardo’s starts have become Win Day for the Phillies, and Schwarber’s 40th homer has him pushing for the Hall of Fame. But what’s up with Trea Turner? Time to sit him? Time to drop him in the lineup? We talk about Andrew Painter’s chances to start a postseason game and more. RothmanOrtho.com : ⚾ This episode of The Phillies Show is powered by Monster Energy.

The Phillies flew to Seattle on Sunday on the highest of highs, riding a nine-game winning streak into a nine-game West Coast road trip. But then Zack Wheeler got shelled on Monday, allowing four home runs and eight runs in just four innings. He has an 8.51 ERA in his last six starts. Then the offense collected just two hits after the second inning in Tuesday’s loss. Suddenly, the Braves have a 4 ½ game lead in the NL East again. Suddenly, the Diamondbacks are only three behind the Phillies for the third NL Wild Card spot. We talk about Aaron Nola’ turnaround, Bryce Harper’s on-base streak, Jim’s latest harvest from his garden and more. This episode of The Phillies Show is powered by Monster Energy.

Don’t count out these Phillies. Kyle Schwarber hit a dramatic, no-doubt-about-it, walk-off home run in the ninth inning in Sunday’s 6-4 victory over the Cardinals at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies have won in nine in a row! Big at-bats from Bryce Harper, J.T. Realmuto, Justin Crawford, Edmundo Sosa and Bryan De La Cruz in the ninth inning led to Schwarber’s historic moment. We talk about the Phillies' historic comeback, Andrew Painter's resurgence, the Phillies' offense in August and more. It’s “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza !

Is Aaron Nola back? If so, it’s great news for the Phillies. At the very least, Nola’s resurgence is coming at the right time with Phillies co-aces Zack Wheeler and Cristopher Sánchez not pitching to their typical standards. We then answer your questions, everything from this team’s ability to win the World Series to swinging at first pitches to Alec Bohm’s and Luis Arraez’s futures with the Phillies to Jesús Luzardo starting Game 1 of a postseason series. And you can bet we have a few questions about Jim’s garden, too. This episode of The Phillies Show is powered by Monster Energy.

Alec Bohm and Bryson Stott continue to come up big for the Phillies, who have won five consecutive games to move into second place in the NL Wild Card race. It’s fun to watch guys get hits and run the bases, isn’t it? But can the Phillies keep it up? Meanwhile, Zack Wheeler’s struggles continue, while Cristopher Sánchez’s home dominance continues.

Phillies first baseman Alec Bohm has been crushed by Phillies fans for weeks. Some wanted him off the team. But Bohm has been one of the Phillies best hitters since the All-Star break, and even one of the best hitters in baseball. Meanwhile, the Phillies’ offense has the best on-base percentage in baseball in August. Do you believe in Bohm’s resurgence? Do you believe in the Phillies offense? We discuss those hot-button issues, plus USA Today reported this weekend that Dave Dombrowski is expected to hire Alex Cora as the next Phillies manager, unless Don Mattingly wins the World Series.

The Field of Dreams game lived up to the hype on Thursday night in Iowa. Kyle Schwarber homered twice in a 7-1 victory over the Twins. He’s heating up, smashing four home runs in his last five games. Aaron Nola allowed one run in five innings. He has a 2.91 ERA in his last four starts. Ruben was in Iowa, so he shared his experience, which included an awesome pregame ceremony that featured former Phillies and Hall of Famers Mike Schmidt, Steve Carlton, Jim Thome, Scott Rolen, Billy Wagner, Tony Perez, Jim Kaat and Fergie Jenkins.

The Phillies grounded into four double plays on Tuesday night. They lost to the Cardinals, 2-0. It’s the 27th time this season they’ve been held to one run or shut out. Only the A’s have done that more. But Tuesday’s loss also dropped the Phillies into a three-way tie with the Diamondbacks and Padres for the final two NL Wild Card spots. Luis Arraez is hitless in his last 16 at-bats. Bryce Harper has a sore left knee. The Phillies’ bullpen is running on fumes. Cristopher Sánchez ran out of gas. But other than than, everything is great. This episode of The Phillies Show is powered by Monster Energy. Stop By Your Local Retailer To Pick Up A Monster Energy Drink Today.

Chase Utley made the Phillies’ Wall of Fame this weekend, but he couldn’t have been happy to see the way his former team played. Sloppy all around, and only a Derek Hill walk-off single in the 12th inning on Sunday prevented a sweep. There are plenty of things to be concerned about going into the final few weeks of the regular season, but perhaps the biggest one is the bullpen. Orion Kerkering and José Alvarado continue to struggle, new righty Caleb Kilian is hurt and the bridge to Jhoan Duran remains as rickety as ever. It’s “Best Week” by Manco & Manco Pizza !

We talk about his impact in his first three games with the Phillies.

We recap the Phillies’ trade deadline. The Phillies got Luis Arraez, Brooks Raley and Caleb Kilian. But they didn't get a right-handed bat. They didn't get a No. 5 starter.

Title: It’s Trade Deadline Day for the Phillies Finally, Major League Baseball’s trade deadline is here. It’s 6 p.m. ET on Monday, and we expect the Phillies to be busy. But what will they get? A reliever? A bat? Both? Are the Phillies no longer looking for a starter following Andrew Painter’s encouraging start on Friday? It could allow them to make better moves elsewhere, but it would leave them exposed should another starter go down. This episode of The Phillies Show is powered by Monster Energy.
