Every team has bad stretches over the course of a 162-game season, but it has been six years since the Phillies have struggled like this.
They have lost 9 out of 10 following Sunday’s 2-1 loss to the Pirates in Pittsburgh. It’s the first time they have lost 9 out of 10 since June 12-23, 2019. They have been swept in consecutive weekends. They have scored only one run in four of their last five games. The offense is struggling … big time. The bullpen is shaky. The defense is shaky. Every Phillies flaw has been exposed.
So, now what? Do the Phillies call a team meeting? Promote a prospect? Make a lineup change? We discuss. Plus, how concerned should everybody be about Bryce Harper’s wrist? And just for fun … what would it take for the Phillies to trade for Paul Skenes?
