The Memorial Day checkpoint has arrived and the Phillies are largely in the same position they found themselves in a year ago. Which problems are ripe for regression and which might linger?
• Only six offenses have walked at a lower rate.
Teams are taking extra bases regularly against Schwarber and there's no solution to the problem of left-field defense until Bryce Harper is ready to play first base after the All-Star break, allowing Schwarber to DH. Every game matters but this is an especially crucial part of the Phillies' schedule. After Monday's off day, they have their first series against the Mets, followed by a three-game series in D.C. they must win.
A potential saving grace is that the Phillies have played only seven of their 52 NL East games. It's no longer early, but there are still plenty of head-to-head matchups that would allow them to rise in the division if they can get their act together.
