Phillies Nation Podcast: Phils-Fish Wild Card Series breakdown

How will the Phillies use Brandon Marsh in the Wild Card Series? (Don Otto/Phillies Nation)

Nathan Ackerman and Ty Daubert are back on the Phillies Nation Podcast to break down everything about the Phillies’ Wild Card Series matchup with the Miami Marlins.

They get into the Phillies’ roster and who might win the last remaining spots on the fringes of the bench and the bullpen. Then, they measure how the Phillies and Marlins stack up: by each game’s starting pitcher, position-by-position and in the bullpen. They walk through a draft of the Phillies’ relief options (mainly to talk about Orion Kerkering) and theorize how Rob Thomson will construct the lineup (cleanup Harper?).

Finally, they give their predictions for the series, as well as brief picks for MLB’s other three Wild Card Series.
