Rise and Phight: 3/24/2023
Dave Nelson-USA TODAY Sports I mean, what else are we talking about? There really is only one piece of news dominating the Phillies right now and that’s Rhys Hoskins. By now, you know of his torn ACL that will require surgery, likely ending his season though that has been decided as of this publishing time.

The State of the Outfield
Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports Let’s see where the outfield stands heading into 2023. The Starters: Kyle Schwarber, Brandon Marsh, Nick Castellanos, Bryce Harper* The Bench: Jake Cave, Dalton Guthrie *Injured List What To Expect Just two years ago, Phillies fans were excited about the last year of Andrew McCutchen, praying 37 wouldn’t make the team, and curious if young players like Mickey Moniak and Adam Haseley could stick. Now, it’s completely different with bigger stars, better young players, and bigger questions. The Phillies did almost all of their outfield...
