I am joined by my podcast friend and co-host of the show, Matt Veasey for his first podcast of '22. We're talking about the lock-out of MLB and perhaps more importantly with the Twitter frenzy of the moment 'Did Tom Brady retire?' Hall of Fame vote, and where some Phillies stand on it.  Kevin Frandsen finds a full time job in TV commentary for the Nationals... All this and more on the show!

This is the 2nd edition of Phillies Talk Podcast for 2022 - the start of the 16th season of podcasting by Phillies Talk Podcast with Rich again telling the listeners how the show started back in the day. The Players Association will come back with a response to the MLB on Monday Jan. 24th, and hopefully it will be good news, a lot of news outlets are reporting it won't be a settlement but we'll have to wait and see. Brandon Duckworth's birthday on the 24th, the show talks about that and then we take a look at Jayson Werth and Pat Burrell, and how they both made out after their time on the WS winning team in 2008. The Phillies are retired numbers are talked about, I really think the Phillies have this right, don't retire everyone's number like the Yankees have for god's sake. All of this and so much more!  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/phillies/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/phillies/support

It's still a state of baseball lockout, not what the fans of baseball need after enduring the 2020 shortened season by Covid-19 and then risking their own lives by attending a game or two or more in 2021 at the stadium and now the MLB owners decided to lockout the players and create a fiasco that better be straightened up soon.  Should baseball fans flex their collective muscles by not buying any tickets when this is going on? This will put some added leverage on the whole situation, I know I won't be buying tickets anytime too soon. Should the owners even be able to sell tickets when technically there aren't any players?  All of this and more on the first show of the year for the Phillies Talk Podcast with Rich Baxter for 2022. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/phillies/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/phillies/support

We're back talking baseball, on this show! Matt Veasey joins me for a great talk about the Hot Stove season for the Phillies that led up to the Lock Out by MLB. We have plenty to talk about. Which teams made splashes leading up to the lockout, and a couple of new Phillies on the team to talk about as well. We're just getting started in this tremendous holiday season and hope to be back for another show before Christmas, so put up your feet, pour that hot cup of cocoa or tea and enjoy this edition of Phillies Talk Podcast! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/phillies/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/phillies/support

We have the results of the Cy Young Award winner for 2021, it isn't Zack Wheeler but he's a 'closer than ever' vote for the title. Bryce Harper is up for vote tonight, at 6 PM we will know who the NL MVP is... of course we'll talk about that in the next show. I also have to catch up with my co-host, Matt Veasey as well, which hopefully he'll be talking with us soon!

It's time for another episode of Phillies Talk Podcast, the last day of the regular season for the Phillies. Disappointed that things just didn't go the Phillies way to get into the playoffs, but again, did this team deserve to have a change to win the NL East?  All this and more on the show today with Rich going solo again!  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/phillies/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/phillies/support

It's the Phillies Talk Podcast with Rich Baxter, the longest running independent podcast that talks about the Philadelphia Phillies baseball team. A solo show this time around but there is plenty to talk about with the Phils still being a possible NL East Champ - just six games remaining and 3 of those games happen to be with the Braves, so if the Phillies can just keep winning, we may see them in the playoffs.  A bit of a rant develops on the podcast, so be forewarned, this team could have easily coasted into the playoffs with the correct moves by management that were never made.  All this and more on this edition of the podcast.

Phils surprise us and the Braves have been losing is starting to add up to a chance for them to take the NL East with about 12 games remaining.

It's the latest edition of Phillies Talk Podcast by Rich Baxter with Matt Veasey. We're talking about the Phillies chances to either catch the Mets or somehow turn this team around to get 10 games or so over .500 - is this team just spinning wheels? Later on in the show, Rich and Matt talk about the trade scenario. Rich offers up a long shot of possibly trading Bryce Harper and get a boatload of good players for him, of course Matt explains that it is crazy to consider this, but with 3 years in, Rich says, he would part with Harp even though he likes him as a player.  Bryant and Kimbrel to the Phillies? What would we have to give in return? Let's see how Dombrowski works it.  Sponsor the show here:  http://www.anchor.com/Phillies  Rate and review anywhere you listen to the show, give us 5 stars!

It's a mega podcast with Rich and Matt talking all about the Phillies at the All-Star Break for '21 - we did the show as the Phils finished out a win in Boston, thus putting the team in 2nd place at .500 - we could not have been happier with the win. We talk about the All-Star Game, why did it move, and was it a mistake to move it.  In this long show, we take a look at the Phillies for the baseball draft tonight, and who they need. We reminisce about some old World Series memories that we have had, and tell some stories about that.

Wow, can't believe we are already at July 4th, one of my favorite holidays and an important one for the baseball season. The Padres with their high-powered offense are in town, they got in at 4 am so they may be a little weary for Game 1 - but we have Zack Wheeler on the mound anyway, so all is good, isn't it?  Time for Mom, Baseball, and Apple Pie, it's July 4th!  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/phillies/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/phillies/support

What else can we say about this Phillies team as they have slipped to a few games under .500 now? Well, we can still say plenty.  Girardi gets backed into a corner by the media, pro sports gambling is mentioned by the press as to why Joe G needs to be more forthcoming with the press? That's what they said. Joe said, not so fast. Who's right? Aaron Nola and Zack Wheeler, we are happy to have them both, who's the Phillies ace at this point? The Phils come home to a 'full capacity' stadium, we wonder how many of the Phillies faithful will want to pay to see this team? All of this and so much more.

Rich Baxter and Matt Veasey talk about what the Phillies will be striving for in '21 and some other Phillies Talk Podcast notes on a soggy rainy day for the last day of February in 2021 in the Philadelphia area.   I've included some bonus pre-show banter on this show because I recorded the show on a new platform and there is some silence happening that was unknown to me when I was doing the show because of the software - so if you hear a quiet spot, we will be back talking and in the future, I'll be adjusting the software to always capture audio, enjoy! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/phillies/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/phillies/support
