What's behind Aaron Nola's and J.T. Realmuto's struggles

We spent Wednesday about three Phillies trending upward: Alec Bohm, Bryson Stott and Andrew Painter. But we’re spending Friday’s show talking about the very real concerns we have about Aaron Nola and J.T. Realmuto.

Nola has a 6.02 ERA over 27 starts over the past two years. It’s no longer a blip on the radar. Nobody can point to Nola’s health, which they could last season. His struggles are troubling, especially when you remember he has 4+ years remaining on a seven-year, $172 million contract.

J.T. Realmuto just signed a three-year, $45 million contract in January, but he’s struggling mightily in his age-35 season.

We’re concerned. How concerned are you?
