There were only a handful of bright spots in 2019 for the shockingly under-performing Philadelphia Phillies, but their nucleus is still relatively strong.

It goes almost without saying that the grades for the 81-81 Philadelphia Phillies of 2019 will produce a fairly disappointing team GPA, but it is perhaps time to consider what those grades are.

After all, team management in some way goes through this exercise at the end of every season. This particular off-season these evaluations are likely being done by GM Matt Klentak and/or team president Andy MacPhail since manager Gabe Kapler was dismissed a few weeks ago.

Maybe the analytics guys are also involved somehow, but whoever puts fingerprints on the report cards for the very expensive Phils, new manager Joe Girardi will likely be handed something like the following someday soon.

We’ll begin with the starting eight position players and the number one pitcher at the end of the season.
