The 2019 Philadelphia Phillies were a disappointment by every definition of the word.
After an objectively great off-season following the franchise’s first 80-win season since 2012, the team was seemingly poised to end their seven-season playoff drought. They raced out to a 33-22 start and held a three-and-a-half game lead in the National League East near the end of May. Then, the team cratered down the stretch while suffering a rash of injuries and limped to a .500 finish, 16 games behind the division-winning Atlanta Braves and eight games out of a Wild Card spot.
