Summary

Sheil and Anthony Dabbundo discuss the latest with Phillies relief pitcher José Alvarado’s 80-game PED suspension and how that will affect the team going forward. But first, the Phillies' 2020 first-round pick, Mick Abel, made his major league debut and didn’t disappoint. What’s his future with the team (3:22)? Alvarado tested positive for PEDs after trying to lose weight for the season and will now serve an 80-game suspension and be ineligible for the postseason. What’s his future with the team, and how will the Phillies fill the void of arguably the best pitcher in the bullpen (24:32)? Phillies starter Aaron Nola was placed on the 15-day IL with an ankle injury and has had a disastrous start to the season. What’s the outlook for Nola (46:17)? Plus, Sheil revisits his encounter with Jake from Wawa.
