The Phillies might have the best rotation in baseball in 2025, if newly acquired left-hander Jesús Luzardo is healthy following an injury-plagued 2024. Luzardo spoke with Phillies reporters on Monday. He discussed his injured back and why he thinks it is a thing of the past.Big, if true.But if Luzardo (or any other Phillies starter) isn’t healthy, the Phillies should be better protected after signing Joe Ross to a one-year, $4 million deal. He provides starting pitching depth, although he is expected to open the season in the bullpen. How does the Phillies’ bullpen look now? What does it mean for Taijuan Walker and others?The Phillies Show has swag!

Everybody was waiting for the Phillies to do morethis winter.Well, they did.On Thursday night, news broke that the Phillies signed Max Kepler to a one-year, $10 million contract. Dave Dombrowski said Friday that the Phillies were finished making “impactful” free agent signings, sending Phillies fans into a tizzy. But Dombrowski hinted at the pursuit of a No. 5 starter, too. On Sunday morning, news broke that the Phils traded prospects Staryln Caba and Emaarion Boyd to Miami for left-hander Jesús Luzardo and minor league catcher Paul McIntosh.What do we think about the Kepler and Luzardo moves? Is this it? Or might Dombrowski have something else up his sleeve?The Phillies Show has swag!

The Phillies signed right-hander Jordan Romano to a one-year, $8.5 million contract on Monday at the Winter Meetings in Dallas. But they still need to find an outfielder and more to upgrade a team that wants to win the World Series.We’re back from the Winter Meetings in Dallas, and we spent Friday talking about Dave Dombrowski’s comments on the final day of the meetings on Wednesday, when he said it wasn’t the right time to trade a package of top prospects for Garrett Crochet, who was traded to the Red Sox. We also discuss Bryce Harper’s chances at a contract extension, following Scott Boras’ comments on Wednesday, and the Phillies’ chances to trade Alec Bohm.Shop Shibe Vintage Sports for all the Philly sports fans on your holiday list.
