The Phillies Part Ways with Rob Thomson & Taking Control of the Mets

Eno, Britt, and DVR are back and fired up as the trio breaks down the Phillies’ decision to fire manager Rob Thomson, what led to the move, and how Dave Dombrowski’s club can get back on track — including whether brighter days are ahead for Jesús Luzardo. From there, they shift to the Mets’ ongoing struggles, exploring what needs to change before things spiral further, and wrap on a high note with the debut of Guardians top prospect Travis Bazzana.Rundown:2:55 Phillies Fire Rob Thomson4:20 Slow Starting Bats11:35 Limited Options for Position Players17:00 Remember the 2019 Nats?20:52 Faith in the Rotation26:06 How to Fix the Mets36:25 More Concerned About Hitting or Pitching?48:30 Guardians Call Up Travis Bazzana53:40 Eno’s Hot Take in Cleveland55:55 Alex Cora to Mets or Phillies?Follow DVR on Bluesky: @DVR.bsky.socialFollow Eno on Bluesky: @enosarris.bsky.socialFollow Britt on Bluesky: @brittghiroli.bsky.sociale-mail: ratesandbarrels@gmail.comJoin our Discord: https://discord.gg/FyBa9f3wFeSubscribe to The Athletic: theathletic.com/ratesandbarrelsHosts: Derek VanRiper & Eno SarrisWith: Britt GhiroliEditor: Jason Potere Hosted on Acast.
