Hittin' Season: A Phillies Podcast

On Episode 128, host John Stolnis talks about Phillies prospects with beat writer Meghan Montemurro from The News Journal. With J.P. Crawford struggling and the emergence of Scott Kingery, Rhys Hoskins and other prospects in 2017, who is the Phils' No. 1 prospect now? Also, timetables for some of the AAA guys on the doorstep, details about the incredibly exciting Sixto Sanchez and an update on the suddenly decent Mark Appel. Also, lots of trade chatter and the return of "good" Aaron Nola!

On Episode 127, host John Stolnis and co-host Liz Roscher, managing editor of The Good Phight, discuss the upcoming MLB Trade Deadline, and which Phillies players could be on the block. Also, the Phillies are on a 110-loss pace and shortstop Freddy Galvis says he's had enough. And former Phils top prospect and All-Star Domonic Brown had a rough pitching... that's right... pitching debut in AAA over the weekend. Is the hype around J.P. Crawford starting to mirror that of Brown before his ultimate collapse?

On Episode 126, host John Stolnis talks with Jayson Stark about the current state of the Phillies. Stark shares an interesting John Felske story, talks about the industry's take on J.P. Crawford, the state of the rebuild and whether free agents will sign with the team after 2018. Also, James Seltzer from Phillies 24/7 and 94 WIP joins the show to give the five members of the organization he would protect in a hypothetical expansion draft. Also, more brain farts from Odubel Herrera and has Pete Mackanin lost the locker room?

Also, ESPN once again talks about the Phillies and "tanking," why Hector Neris is broken, the Phils still don't have a superstar, and more.

On Episode 124, host John Stolnis talks to Comcast SportsNet's Corey Siedman about whether the Phillies are being overly cautious with a few potential prospects and why they aren't calling some up now. Also, which of the Phils veterans have the best chance to be moved at the deadline, and what is the market for Tommy Joseph? Also, Fangraphs' David Laurila stops by to chat about his interview with hitting coach Matt Stairs, Ruben Amaro Jr., comes back to Philadelphia, and a recap of the Phillies' college-heavy MLB Draft, and one name for 2018 you should know right now.

On Episode 123, hosts John Stolnis and Justin Klugh discuss the first two rounds of the Phillies MLB Draft, with the Phils taking Virginia CF Adam Haseley No. 8 overall. Also, is it time to DFA Michael Saunders? And if so, should Nick Williams be on the team? Should Scott Kingery get the call if Cesar Hernandez is injured for a while? And what is going on with Aaron Nola and Jerad Eickhoff?

On Episode 122, host John Stolnis talks to 94 WIP's Joe Giglio about the struggles of the starting pitchers, specifically Jerad Eickhoff. Also, should the Phils trade Odubel Herrera for good young pitching, and is Pat Neshek really the Phillies' best option for an All-Star? Jay Floyd of PhoulBallz.com joins the show to talk prospects, including the resurgence of Nick Williams and the continuing struggles of J.P. Crawford.

On Episode 122 of The Felske Files, hosts John Stolnis and Justin Klugh look into their crystal balls and give you their lineups and starting rotations for 2018, and ask the question, would you go after Yu Darvish or some other front-line starter this off-season?

On Episode 120, host John Stolnis speaks to CBS3 Feature and Sports Reporter Pat Gallen about one of the worst months we've ever seen in Phillies history. And while the Philadelphia 76ers coined the phrase "Trust the Process," the Phillies new mantra should be, "Trust the Prospects."

Crawford, Tom Eshelman, and preview who the Phillies might take at No. 8 in the upcoming MLB Draft.

On Episode 119, hosts John Stolnis and Justin Klugh talk about red-hot Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs outfielder Nick Williams, who is just the latest Pig to go on a multi-game offensive tear. Should we get our hopes up yet? Also, which is more worrisome, the Phillies starting rotation, or the struggles of Odubel Herrera & Maikel Franco. Why do so many people want to run Herrera out of town? And Phils catchers are using wristbands to help them call pitches. Will it help?
