The only teams with more wins than the Phillies currently: Oakland ( 19 ), Boston, San Francisco, San Diego and St. Louis ... all with 18. The Phillies have 17 wins and the same 17-15 record as the Dodgers, Rays, Brewers and Mariners. Amazing what a four game win streak in a very competitive major league will do 🤓.
Jean Segura will travel to Atlanta with the Phillies. It’s likely he will be activated tomorrow. Team is hoping Bryce Harper can also play against the Braves.

Archie Bradley expects to go to Allentown to throw bullpen sessions and see action in Iron Pigs games on a rehab assignment. He expects to be ready to be activated when the Phillies return back home on the 18th
The team can carry up to five taxi squad members with them on road trips but since this trip isn’t a great distance it’s likely they will forgo bringing extras along.
