What’s really going on with the Phillies — and how do fans feel about it? It’s been a rollercoaster for Philadelphia’s baseball faithful, and now’s your chance to have your voice heard in our latest fan survey. After all, no one understands the team’s highs and heartbreaks better than its supporters.
Since The Athletic’s last fan poll back in January 2023, the Phillies have packed plenty into two thrilling seasons: another trip to the National League Championship Series, consecutive NL East crowns, and a pitching rotation that could rival any in baseball by 2025. Their power hitter even came just shy of clinching league MVP honors — after already taking home the All-Star Game MVP title. Not bad, right?
But here’s where it gets complicated — and maybe a bit frustrating. Despite all that success, there’s still no champagne-soaked parade down Broad Street and no return ticket to the World Series. The team now faces a defining offseason, with three of its marquee free agents possibly walking away and a lingering question about how to reignite a lineup that’s fallen flat when it matters most.
With the Winter Meetings in Orlando less than two weeks away, the Phillies have been unusually quiet. Most of the offseason plans hinge on whether stars like J.T. Realmuto and Kyle Schwarber decide to re-sign — and until that’s settled, the front office’s hands are somewhat tied. While the organization weighs its next steps, fans are busy crafting their offseason wishlists and opinions. That’s where this survey comes in: The Athletic wants to know exactly what supporters think about the state of the franchise.
The survey is open until Monday, so there’s still time to make your voice count. Once it closes, keep an eye out for the results and in-depth analysis from our Phillies coverage team.
Now it’s your turn: Do you still believe this core can deliver a championship — or is it time for a serious shake-up? Should the Phillies push all-in again or take a step back to regroup? Share your perspective in the comments — after all, no fan base debates baseball quite like Philadelphia.
