You may have heard, Phillies spring training has officially begun!
Pitchers and catchers are reporting to Clearwater for the start of a 2024 campaign filled with World Series hopes and dreams that were crushed each of the last two seasons with one postseason defeat more bitter than the last. After a quiet off-season, the vast majority of the ‘23 Phils are back, aiming at taking another whack at a title they’ve been tantalizingly close to the last two years.
Even though the roster is mostly set, there are a bunch of interesting players to watch. Some of them may have a big impact on the 2024 season, while others could be a factor as early as next year or could be trade chips at the deadline this summer.
