The Phillies officially announced their reunion with catcher J.T. Realmuto on Tuesday, effectively capping a strange offseason that ended as-expected while occurring like very few expected. And so the question becomes: Are the 2026 Phillies better than the 2025 Phillies? How much better did they actually need to get? Paul and Matt offer hope and caution in (almost) equal measure.

The scene has changed since the last time we talked. Oh boy, has the scene changed. The Phillies and Bo Bichette, with mutual interest, are at the table discussing terms. After a few weeks of seeming like the dust was settled on the offseason, the Phils have placed themselves squarely back in the center ring of the circus, and are after yet another star-level free agent. Will they do it again? Paul and Matt check in to discuss the possibilities, and the effects, of going for Bo.

The Phillies made a surprise move Wednesday, reportedly agreeing to terms on a two-year deal with reliever Brad Keller. Keller immediately bolsters the bullpen's depth and provides much-needed RHP help, but are there more dominoes yet to fall from this move?

The Phillies signed former Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia to a one-year deal this week, apparently firming up the 2026 outfield. It's another lower-risk addition hoping for a bounce back; will this one fare better than Max Kepler, Jordan Romano, and Joe Ross did in '25?

The Pittsburgh Pirates have made a four-year offer to Kyle Schwarber. Yup, that's a real and factual sentence. As the Winter Meetings kick off in Florida, Paul and Matt chat about Schwarber's market and expected decision timeline, the constraints (or lack thereof) the Phils have for payroll beyond Schwarber and J.T. Realmuto, and a quick health check.
