The Phillies are 7-3 in the last 10 games. The Pirates are 3-7 in the last 10 games. The Phillies have a winning record both home and away. The Pirates have a losing record both home and away.
In this era of MLB where money both talks and attracts the top talent, the question heading into the future is whether franchises like the Pirates can remain competitive. Outside of pitcher Paul Skenes, who was drafted, the Pirates may struggle to keep up with the talent levels on big spending teams like the Dodgers, Yankees, Mets, Phillies, etc.
