The Philadelphia Phillies pack their bags and head to Coors Field for a 3-game road series against the Colorado Rockies (April 3–5, 2026)! Coming off a home series victory against the Washington Nationals, can the Phils find their footing at one of the most hitter-friendly parks in baseball?

With a core built around big contracts, Philadelphia has more at stake than most. We give you our take on what it means for the future of this team. Konnor Griffin of the Pittsburgh Pirates just signed a record breaking contract before ever swinging the bat.

Phillies & starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo came to an agreement on a 5 year extension today worth $135 million. The left handed starting pitcher will now anchor a Phillies future rotation of Cristopher Sanchez with young phenom Andrew Painter, creating a bridge to the future with an agin Zack Wheeler & Aaron Nola. Dave Dombrowski and the Phillies front office made sure the player they traded for last year from the Miami Marlins didn’t hit free agency at seasons end. The Phillies now secure the future of one of the NL East’s better starting rotations.
