Philadelphia Phillies Headlines

The final four teams are set now, the Dodgers and Brewers in the NLCS, the Guardians and Rays in the ALCS. Both series have their quirks about them, the NLCS being a matchup of heavyweights, the ALCS being somewhat one sided on paper.

So now we know all the participants in the coming ALCS and NLCS matchups. Dodgers and Brewers begins tonight, which should be an outstanding series.

Alright, Game 5 in Cleveland. White Sox at Guardians.

It’s that time of year where teams are shaking up their front office structure and interviews are happening. We know that Sam Fuld was in the running to take the A’s president of baseball operations position, but that has apparently not come to pass.

Let’s say there is a scenario in which the Phillies had an offer on the table to improve their moribund offense. That incoming player was a guaranteed 3-4 WAR player at a position of need – third base, outfield, pick your poison.

There is a game five tonight with the White Sox going back to Cleveland to take on the Guardians to see who will be playing the Rays in the ALCS. Chicago might be on fumes with their pitching staff though as their idea of “pitching chaos” is starting to get exposed.

Given the nature of the third annual TGP off-season guide and when it will probably be released, I made the call to split this section into it’s own piece. A lot of decisions that will shape the Phillies’ off-season are going to be made quickly.

It’s no secret that the Phillies have a poor defense. In fact, they have one of the worst defenses in the sport, as they ranked dead last in total defensive runs saved with -51 and their outs above average were only slightly better, coming in at 21st with -15.

When it rains, it pours in Philly. After the Philadelphia Phillies started the season 9–19, Dave Dombrowski decided that he wanted to move on from Rob Thomson and Alex Cora, as Cora had been fired from the Red Sox at the same time.

Phillies president of baseball operations Sam Fuld has declined the Athletics’ offer to become the team’s new president of baseball operations, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reports. Fuld’s name surfaced in connection to the A’s job earlier this week, but Fuld has now taken himself out of…

In December 2020, when the Philadelphia Phillies hired Dave Dombrowski, he brought October baseball back to Philadelphia after 2011. Since then, the Phillies have earned postseason berths every year.

Alex Cora may be holding out for the ultimate heel turn.

If they want to be better than they were in '26, here are the changes the Yankees need to make before the 2027 season gets underway.

The Philadelphia Phillies are going to have to make a series of tough choices and decisions as they head into the offseason. They’re going to have to decide how to revamp the bullpen.

Baseball Hall of Famer Jim Thome, a special assistant to Chicago White Sox general manager Chris Getz, received criticism from Cleveland Guardians fans and media for wearing all black at Game 3 of the ALDS on Wednesday.

The Philadelphia Phillies have a big decision to make on the manager position. Alex Cora was expected to be a top option, but USA Today’s Bob Nightengale said Cora will sit out the 2027 season.

Many fans of the Bronx Bombers are ready to burn down Yankee Stadium, viewing their beloved team as an aging, overpaid mess that simply isn’t good enough to win a World Series. Where have Phillies fans heard that before?

Bailey Falter's fall from grace continues after electing free agency

I was taught never to be the kind of person that complains endlessly without offering a solution to the problem. So, with that in mind, here is my blueprint for an offseason’s worth of moves that I think could get the Phillies back on track.

Sam Fuld is considered an up-and-coming star in the front office world, making it quite confusing why the Phillies would offer current head honcho Dave Dombrowski another contract extension while letting Fuld walk.

Let’s break down a handful of players that should stick around in 2027, and a few that the Phillies should move on from.

In the first disappointment of the offseason, the Phillies' top choice for the vacant manager role, Alex Cora, declined to skipper the team in 2027. However, that should be greeted by fans as a relief instead of a heartbreak.

Unless they want to bring back Don Mattingly, the Phillies have no captain at the helm. What manager should they bring in to fill the void?

Alex Cora informed the Phillies that he’ll be sitting out the 2027 season, leaving them to sort through their B-list of candidates. Frankly, who can blame him?

Gee, everyone see that moving Trea Turner to the outfield is the smart idea

Sam Fuld declined an offer to be the A's president of baseball operations, sources told ESPN, with Red Sox assistant GM Taylor Smith remaining a top candidate.

Alex Cora was expected to be the next Phillies manager, but he turned them down (again) ... so where will the team look now?

Cora, fired by the Red Sox early in 2026, turned down the Phillies in April and again this week
