Show Notes
The Philadelphia Phillies kick off their season with a challenging series against the Texas Rangers, featuring a formidable trio of pitchers: Nate Eovaldi, Jacob deGrom, and Mackenzie Gore. To counter this, the Phillies will employ a platoon strategy, starting Bryson Stott and Brandon Marsh against right-handers and Edmundo Sosa and Otto Kemp against lefties. This approach aims to hide weaknesses against same-handed pitching, with Sosa and Kemp showing promise in the past. However, platoons come with risks, such as fewer at-bats affecting rhythm. The Phillies have built their bench around this plan, adding utilityman Dylan Moore, and for Stott and Marsh, this season could be a make-or-break opportunity to prove their worth as everyday players.
