Can the Phillies repeat?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Philadelphia Phillies fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
The Phillies are in a tougher division this season, of this there is no doubt. The Braves struggled with health and some regression to the mean in 2024 and seemed primed for at least a decent bounceback to previous heights. The Mets went to the NLCS last year and added Juan Soto (though their pitching might not last). The Nationals have some exciting young piece, so they could end up being annoying all season long.
The Marlins are there too.
With that said, we’re posing the question to you: where do you think the Phillies will finish this year in the National League East? There are a lot of things that can go right for them that would vault them back to the front of the race, but also cracks in the foundation that could see them drop a bit.
What do you think?
