On the Monday July 8, 2019 edition of Locked On Phillies, Phillies Nation Editorial Director Tim Kelly says the Phillies aren’t in a particularly great spot as they break for the All-Star Game, even after they took two of three from the New York Mets over the weekend.

Specifically, Kelly breaks down the state of the Phillies starting rotation after ace Aaron Nola.

Later in the show, Kelly talks about the dilemna that general manager Matt Klentak is faced as the July 31 trade deadline nears.

Locked On Phillies is a daily Phillies podcast hosted by Tim Kelly that’s part of the Locked On Podcast Network. You can listen to and download Locked On Phillies on the new podcasting app Himalaya, as well as Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and Spotify.
