According to a player from the Philadelphia Phillies’ infield, the 2025 version of the team is the deepest in the MLB playoffs since 2019, where they face the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League Division Series.
The baseball player said this before game one of the divisional series in which the Los Angeles Dodgers came from behind to defeat the Philadelphia Phillies five runs to three on Saturday, October 4, 2025.
The 2025 version of the Philadelphia Phillies is the deepest team in the MLB playoffs since 2019
According to Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto: “In my opinion, this is probably the deepest team we’ve had. I think the lineup is as deep as we’ve had it. I think our bullpen, in my opinion, is the best, top to bottom, that we’ve had since I’ve been here.”
“We’ve had good teams here, but I feel like this is the most complete team we’ve had.”
“It’s tough to lose Zack Wheeler. You can’t replace a guy like that. Our starting lineup is very deep. We have guys who pitch really well and have been successful at this stage.”
“I don’t think any of our contracts really change the way we feel this postseason compared to others. We’ve always had a sense of urgency here, and every year when you start, the ultimate goal is to win a World Series. At the end of the day, that’s the only thing that matters. There are different contracts that expire every season. I don’t see this any differently than in past seasons. From the beginning of this year, we wanted to win a World Series, and that’s the only thing we’re thinking about.”
Los Angeles Dodgers
“In my opinion, they’re the epitome of what Major League Baseball should be. They come out every year and try to win, their ownership is incredible, their front office is great. It’s an organization that other teams look up to. And I look at our team the same way.”, J.T. Realmuto.

Sorry, NFL: Chiefs Still Look Like Best Team in Professional Football
The Kansas City Chiefs are back to .500, improving to 3-3 after defeating the Detroit Lions on Sunday night. And, apparently, the win was enough for Colin Cowherd to declare that Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid and the Chiefs have regained their throne as the NFL's top team."Everybody's worst nightmare is now official: The Kansas City Chiefs, once again, are the best team in professional football," Cowherd said on Monday's "The Herd." "First three weeks, Mahomes was wobbly, and they were averaging 20 points per game. In their last three games, they're averaging 32 points per game along with that defense and those special teams.""Sorry, NFL, they did it again."Sunday's 30-17 victory was arguably the Chiefs' most impressive of the year, decisively taking down a team that was widely considered to be the best in the league entering Week 6. The Chiefs […]

NFL suspends Brian Branch without pay for initiating postgame brawl between Lions, Chiefs
Brian Branch has been suspended by the NFL for one game without pay for his actions following the Lions' loss to the Chiefs on Sunday night. The Lions' Pro Bowl defensive back initiated a fight between the two teams immediately following the Chiefs' 30-17 win when he punched Kansas City wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster. Branch, who will miss the Lions' upcoming home game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on "Monday Night Football," stands to lose $76,624 for one one-game suspension. He is planning to appeal said suspension, according to NFL Media. Branch attributed his actions postgame to building frustration with Smith-Schuster during Sunday night's game. "I did a real childish thing," Branch said. "I'm tired of people doing stuff in between plays and refs don't catch it. They be trying to bully me out there. I shouldn't have did it, it was childish." Lions […]
What Does Brian Callahan’s Firing Mean for Cam Ward’s Development with Titans?
Cam Ward didn’t have much stability in his college football days. The No. 1 pick had three different offensive playcallers in his last three seasons at Washington State (2022-23) and Miami (2024). That’s on top of the challenges acclimating to different coaching staffs and teammates at three programs in a five-year span. So in August, when asked about what it could mean for him to finally have stability in the NFL, the Titans rookie quarterback said it would "unlock everything.""You see the best quarterbacks out there," Ward said during training camp. "Tom Brady? He had stability. Lamar [Jackson]? He had stability. Pat [Mahomes]? He had stability. I just think that a lot of guys who have stability in the NFL can succeed at a faster rate, but can also succeed long term. I just think that’s what we need in Tennessee."That's […]
