In Episode 61 of The Felske Files, host John Stolnis welcomes Phillies beat writer from The News Journal Meghan Montemurro to talk about Aaron Nola's 2016 season possibly being over, and the call-up of the team's top pitching prospect, Jake Thompson. Also, why Cesar Hernandez is so vexing, why Tommy Joseph is so encouraging, and the Phils pulled a little Merkle's Boner of their own this week.

The Phillies got some pretty bad news this week, losing their best starting pitcher, Aaron Nola, to the disabled list with a strained right elbow.

That it wasn’t something more severe is a relief, but the injury likely means Nola’s 2016 season is over.
