Andrew Painter is BACK — and he looks like a completely different pitcher. 🔥

The Phillies just wrapped up a brutal late-season West Coast trip, and somehow the biggest takeaway might be just how dominant Andrew Painter looked. His changeup is filthy, his fastball is playing up, and whatever the Phillies worked on with him in the minors appears to be paying off.

So what does Painter’s emergence mean for the Phillies rotation heading into the playoffs? Could Aaron Nola’s postseason experience push him into a Game 4 role? And how much can Philadelphia rely on Painter if he keeps pitching like this?

Plus, the Braves are coming to Citizens Bank Park for a massive showdown. Atlanta is now just four games back — and we’re previewing the weekend series, including the pitching matchups and whether Matt Olson is on a Hall of Fame trajectory.

Bryce Harper is also making history with his incredible on-base streak. Where does Bryce rank among the greatest Phillies legends? We break down the franchise leaderboard and put Corey to the test with some Bryce OB streak trivia.

And don’t sleep on Alex McFarlane. The rookie reliever’s role continues to grow, and his recent performance against Nolan Arenado had the Phillies clubhouse buzzing. Aaron Nola, Garrett Stubbs and Arenado himself all had high praise for the young right-hander.

Plus: Howie Roseman calls Dave Dombrowski, the biggest storylines around MLB, Paul Skenes’ incredible rookie season, the Angels' wild sale, Ronald Acuña Jr. reaching 200 career home runs, the AL Cy Young race, and a heated WAR debate featuring Adrian Beltre vs. Miguel Cabrera and Mike Schmidt vs. Albert Pujols.
