What to Watch in the Second Half

The Phillies won a franchise-record 62 games before the All-Star break.

They sent a franchise-record eight players to the All-Star Game.

There’s 11 days until the July 30 trade deadline.

There’s less than 11 weeks before the postseason.

Ruben, Jim and Todd discuss a few storylines to follow for the Phillies in the second half:

1. Zack Wheeler and Ranger Suárez returning to dominance following recent back issues.
2. Just keeping everything healthy and effective entering the postseason.
3. Who do the Phillies get before the July 30 trade deadline?
4. It would be great to see Bryson Stott, Seranthony Domínguez and others pick it up in the second half.
5. Can Bryce Harper win a third NL MVP? Can Zack Wheeler win his first NL Cy Young? Can Trea Turner win the Phillies’ first NL batting title since 1958?
