When Philadelphia Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski sat down for his annual October press conference, he offered intriguing comments about Phillies star first baseman Bryce Harper. At one point, Dombrowski wondered aloud if Harper would return to being an elite player after his worst season as a Phillie in 2025. But in a recent article in The Athletic, Harper said that he played through injury and was "really hurt" by Dombrowski's comments. Was Dombrowski simply challenging his start player? Might Bryce Harper get traded? If not, will this drama linger into the 2026 season? Jamie Lynch and Rich Hofmann discuss that and more on the PHLY Phillies Podcast.
