Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Philadelphia Phillies fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
The Phillies are in a tougher division this season, of this there is no doubt. The Braves struggled with health and some regression to the mean in 2024 and seemed primed for at least a decent bounceback to previous heights. The Mets went to the NLCS last year and added Juan Soto (though their pitching might not last).
