The Philadelphia Phillies’ season took a massive turn over the weekend when Bryce Harper fractured his thumb on a hit by pitch. The Phillies took three of four from the Padres to continue their red-hot June, but things suddenly look a lot different.

Ty Daubert and Nathan Ackerman discuss how the Phillies can withstand the loss of Harper and which players will need to step up for them to overcome it. Plus, Nathan’s deep personal bond with Mark Appel, Ty’s ingenious trade target and a suddenly dominant Phillies bullpen.
