The Phillies have a big week this week.
First, they’ll take on the Nationals. The Nationals are down right now, clinging to the hopes of a playoff spot. Of course, they’re just like the Phillies, who are only a game ahead of them in the standings. They are games that the Phillies absolutely need to win before they head to New York for a four game series. They’ll begin with Zack Wheeler on the mound at home, the closest thing to a lock the Phillies have.
