Today I will be talking about the 2020-2024 Phillies teams. This has been one of the greatest teams ever the whole Phillies organization's existence. With them having gone to the World Series in 2022 and them having a MVP player in 2021. And last year with them going to the NLCS they sadly lost against the Diamondbacks and lost against the Astros in the World Series. We have great outfielders like Johan Rojas who's pretty young which I think he'll stick around for a while in the Phillies organization. Same with Brandon Marsh and Nick Castellanos who was a great signing that we made in the 2021 offseason I'm pretty sure. Same with Ty Scherber with him being our DH and having over 45 home runs in the past two years with him being with us. Also we have some great infielders like Bryson Stott out with them who are very young in their mid-20s and having great hitting and great defense. And we have people like Trey Turner who's a great hitter and a great shortstop with one time in the year this year leading the whole league with hits I'm pretty sure. And then we got Bryce Harper who's I'd say the best first baseman in the league with him not letting one ball pass him this whole year so far. And him having great hitting with him already having a top 15 home runs in the league. Also we have a great foreign system with people like Nick Adele coming up about estimated to have his MLB debut in 2024. I think he'll be a great pitcher, an ace for us in the future. He has great stuff and I'm excited to see him pitch. We have Eden Millen as well, top 100 prospect. Same with Nick Adele. He's a great infielder and hitter. We have about 5 top 100 prospects in the MLB, in the minor leagues. But I think the foreign system and scouts are doing great with our prospects and I think the Phillies team will be a competitor for years because of that. I'm excited to see what they do with Johan Rojas, Cody Clements and Zach Wheeler. Because this is their last season, potentially their last season at the Philly. So I'm excited to see what they do and decide on either signing them, letting them go or trading them at the deadline. For Zach Wheeler I think we are either trading him at the deadline or re-signing him. I think that's the only options or only outcomes that will happen. But I think we should definitely trade Zach Wheeler at the deadline. I know he's probably our best ace but he's getting older now. I think we could trade him for maybe another great pitcher or young pitching prospect. But with Johan Rojas and Cody Clements I think we re-sign them. Because once Bryce Harper's contract is done or whenever he retires, which I would think he would retire with the Phillies. We really need a good first baseman with Cody Clements. Or he could play somewhere else in the infield or potentially be ADH. Johan Rojas is our center fielder. So right now he's a great defensive weapon and he's an all-right hitter, getting better. I'm excited to see in the future what they do with people like Trey Turner, Aaron Nola and Bryce Harper. Because by the time their signings will be done they will be pretty old. I'm excited to see what they do with them, either signing them or trading them. So Bryce Harper, I think we should keep him. Unless something happens with him, his defense or offense gets bad, I think we should keep him for a while. Because I think he's a great baseball player. Not only a baseball player, he's a great teammate and a great sports star in the Phillies. He likes the fans, fans like him. I think he's just a great fit for Philly. And Trey Turner, I think we'll keep him around a bit. I think we might train him eventually, but for now he's going to stay in Philly, I think. And then Aaron Nola, I'm pretty sure he's here for the rest of his career. Because we signed him, unless we either trade him or something goes wrong, I would say we have him for the rest of his career. So I think that's a good sign for Philly. I think we'll have him every ring for the next 10 years, many playoff games. I'm excited to see where the Phillies team is going and I think it's going to be a great time for Philly.
