The Phillies implemented a strategy Eagles fans are probably quite (frustratingly) familiar with this offseason, the patented "old guy strategy." In addition to bringing back the entire starting line up from 2020, the Phillies added a ton of depth this offseason by way of veterans who could take a handful of important 26-man roster spots when the 2021 season kicks off.

With the Phillies now playing spring training games, it appears that the roster drama will be surrounding who makes the team — at the conclusion of a bevy of position battles — rather than if they will add another impact player like Jake Odorizzi or even a marginal piece.

A slow-paced offseason that had the season in doubt for much of it, will conclude with what is expected to be a full schedule of exhibitions, with a limited slate of opponents and travel. The regular season is also currently on pace to begin on time (April 1) and have a full 162-game campaign, which means teams like the Phillies will be anxiously getting players up to speed for the next month.
Before the action begins, we've compiled the 10 most important storylines to watch for this March ahead of the 2021 MLB season.

There are really four main positional battles that will heat up when games begin in Florida next week. We've broken them down below, and have slotted the contenders in the order of likeliness — we believe — of them landing the role.

In 2021, the Phillies are expected to the same group of starting position players with a new starting pitcher or two, and a totally revamped bullpen. They're also (we hope) going to be playing 162 games, instead of 60. We'll be breaking down the Phils position by position as the team begins playing games in Clearwater next week. But before then, we thought it would be interesting to rank this team's strengths and weaknesses.

The pitchers are pitching, the catchers are catching, and the rest of the players are starting to report. Spring training baseball games are just around a week away, and the Phillies have more depth and positional battles than they've had in recent years.

As the saga continues for the Eagles, as they field offers for Carson Wentz (mostly from the Bears and Colts), you've no doubt read about all the snags, hiccups and issues on the Philadelphia side of things.
