Hector Neris

The Phillies announced that Hector Neris will remain the Phillies closer in the 2021 season.

We all know the Phillies had a historically bad bullpen in the 2020 season, but can new Phillies President of Baseball Operations, Dave Dombrowski come in and fix that in just one offseason?

Pitchers Héctor Neris and Zach Eflin were among five players who agreed to one-year contracts with the Philadelphia Phillies and the team offered deals to first baseman Rhys Hoskins and right-hander Vince Velasquez, who are eligible for salary arbitration.

The Phillies have reportedly re-signed reliever Seranthony Dominguez to a one-year contract for 2021, even though he will not throw a single pitch.

The Phillies fell to the Tampa Bay Rays 5-0 to end their 2020 season without a playoff berth.

The Philadelphia Phillies beat the Toronto Blue Jays in both games of their double header. Zach Eflin threw seven strong innings and struck out nine in game one, resulting in a 7-0 win. Bryce Harper hit a monster home-run to highlight the scoring. In game two, the Phils went with a bullpen game and somehow won?! Shocking. Rafael Marchán, who never hit a home-run in his entire professional career, had hit a three-run bomb to tie the game up at 5-5. When down 7-5, Harper came up clutch with double knocking into two runs. Alec Bohm finished the job to take the lead. Hector Neris recorded the save, but not without allowing two men on with two outs.

The Philadelphia Phillies bullpen has a 7.17 ERA. This is unbelievable. After Bryce Harper, Alec Bohm,and Didi Gregorius go back-to-back-to-back in the first inning. After Harper hit his second home-run of the night, this bullpen does the thinkable. Blake Parker could not help out Aaron Nola in the sixth. Brandon Workman could not do anything. Garrett Cleavinger got shelled. The Mets won 10-6. This team is horrendous!

JORGE ALFARO HITS A WALK OFF TO BEAT THE PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES!!!! WHY CAN'T THEY BEAT THE MARLINS!!!!! WHY IS TOMMY HUNTER AND BRANDON WORKMAN SO BAD!!!!

The Philadelphia Phillies split their double header with the Boston Red Sox. I AM NOT SATISFIED! They haven't swept a double header since 2012! The Phils had the lead in both games before the bullpen blew it. In game one, Tommy Hunter lost the lead, but thankfully Alec Bohm hit a walk off in the bottom of the seventh. In game two David Phelps allowed a two-run home run to Bobby Dalbec and the rest was history. The bullpen looks to be an issue again along with Bryce Harper being ICE COLD! This Miami Marlins series coming up is so big, I can't even put it into words.

The Philadelphia Phillies win their fifth straight game by taking down the New York Mets 5-3! Joe Girardi gave Bryce Harper a rest day since he is ice cold, hitting 7 in his last 45 attempts. Jake Arrieta threw seven innings and recorded seven strikeouts. What a great bounce-back from his last start which was the shortest of his career. Also, Arrieta hasn't had a seven inning performance in his last 20 starts. In the seventh inning the game was tied. Phil Gosselin and Roman Quinn were a big reason why the Phils took the lead. In the eighth, Jean Segura added insurance and Adam Haseley was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. Hector Neris got into trouble and Tommy Hunter had his back with the help of Rhys Hoskins' defense. Yes, you read that correctly. Brandon Workman recorded a clean save!
