If this Phillies 2020 team goes bust, we’ll probably look back at this offseason and say that management went “New York crazy” with all of the ties to NY that the Phillies made this late 2019. We can start right with Joe Girardi, is Joe the best candidate to manage a baseball team? If so, why wasn’t he gobbled up […]
It’s the Hot Stove show for December, the Phillies signed Didi Gregorious and we got Zack Wheeler from the Mets. Are the Phils done? Time will tell, but this team is starting to shape up. We’re talking a bit of Joe Giradi history with the Yankees, what will this 2020 team do? Join Rich Baxter and Matt Veasey from @PhilliesBell […]
The NY Market responds to the Didi signing, says Didi can do well at CBP I hope this is one of the articles that you’ll look back on and say I was wrong. The Phillies picked up Didi Gregorious for a year to play for the team. His year in 2019 wasn’t good to say the least, he was a […]
Embed from Getty Images There was a serious doubt that the Mets would be able to sign all of the players still on the team last year. Zack Wheeler was deemed one that the Mets didn’t keep in the fold, they did give him a qualifying offer of $17.8M for this season but it was declined by Wheeler to stay […]

Getting the ‘Hot Stove’ on for winter and Awards Week! Phillies Talk Podcast with Rich Baxter and Matt Veasey rolls into the offseason with a new Phillies manager, we talk about Joe Girardi and offer opinions on the selection. Bryce Harper has put his first season in on the Phillies, we talk about that. Who do the Phillies need on […]
The Phillies were looking for a new manager, after releasing Gabe Kapler, the Phils went out and got experience, Joe Girardi. Former Yankees and Marlins manager, and the manager who beat the Phillies in the 2009 World Series. Girardi is well aware of the passion of Phillies fans, I think he understands the city and their thirst to win.

The only thing I am thinking about on the first day of the Phillies off-season is about the hype of the Phillies possibly making the playoffs during the past couple months, this team was […]
