  • Captain Obvious

    Great show and content. I love the perspectives of a former GM and writers. I like they always do not agree. My only criticism is when Jim “Captain Obvious” tells us the game is hard. Makes me yearn for the Chris Wheeler days!

    Great show!!!!

  • Two out of three

    Never thought I would say I love listening to Amaro talk but Jim Salisbury makes me feel that way. Salisbury is clearly the weak link on the show. Nobody wants to hear his stories about himself over and over again. The sound of his voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard. But much like baseball two out of three will get you to the Hall of Fame. So therefore I keep listening.

  • Great Phillies Pods

    Thanks for the analysis guys. For a team that is mostly running it back there is so much going on. And Dombrowski knew what he was doing when he said “not elite.” So much has to go right for this team and a lot is riding on Crawford, Kemp, and Painter. 🤞

  • Respectfully disagree

    Crawford doesn’t profile in CF

    Our current outfield setup going into 2026 exposes our weaknesses even more. We could have had a right-handed Golden Glove, true centerfielder — something we haven’t had since Victorino — for a couple years while Crawford (yet another lefty hitter in this lineup) could have gotten acclimated in the outfield. He could platoon with Marsh and Garcia. Instead, we’re hoping to God this situation works out with Crawford and Kemp and that not a single player gets inju... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Your questions about the Phillies lineup, trade deadline and more
Q: Jim, why don't you get the ball rolling on whether the team can fix the offense by October?
The panel largely believes the team can reach October with healthy starting pitching and bullpen, but offense, especially versus left-handed pitching, needs to improve; midseason adjustments and possible right-handed bats are on the table.
Your Phillies Spring Training Questions
Q: What amount of money comes off the payroll next year and how will that extra cash be spent?
Next year, about $82.6 million comes off the books, and they might focus on extending relationships with players like Jesus Lazardo.
Your Phillies Spring Training Questions
Q: Do you think the Phillies can make a big trade for a big-time player at the deadline?
It depends on the performance of young pitchers drafted in recent years; if they come through and show potential, it may be a possibility.
Your Phillies Spring Training Questions
Q: Do you think there is less pressure on Andrew Painter due to the decent rotation?
Yes, there is less pressure on him because he will not be in a top rotation spot but more toward the back, helping him perform better without the weight of expectations.
Your Phillies questions: on being "content," the outfield, the rotation
Q: Does the front office have internal discussions about how unhappy their fan base truly is?
Yes, it is discussed but moves are made based on the goal of improving the team's performance, not just because of fan dissatisfaction.
