The Philadelphia Phillies are in a fun position. The team is young, they have money to spend (a lot of it), and they’re in a thriving sports market with the Eagles and 76ers having exciting rosters of their own.
This is a baseball club that’s gone through many long, losing seasons, with focus on the future.
For Bryce Harper and Manny Machado, on the field, it’s a chance to join a team that’s full of youth, looking to break out and make noise while being competitive for years to come.
The Phillies have an ownership group that’s ready to build, invest and make any necessary improvements to create a World Series caliber team.
