The Phillies won their first National League East title in 13 years on Monday night, so we got together early Tuesday morning to talk about it.

What did we see in the clubhouse postgame?

What did we think about Aaron Nola’s performance? He’s been around longer than anybody, so nobody can appreciate winning a division title more than him. We discuss Rob Thomson, the family atmosphere that has made this team so close, short-term plans to win a first-round bye and more.

The Phillies had such a good opportunity to clinch the NL East at some point on their just complete seven-game road trip through Milwaukee and New York.

They didn’t.

They went 2-5 on the trip, including three of four losses to the Mets at Citi Field. These types of trips happen, but the Phillies could face the Brewers and Mets in the postseason. As concerning as that might, it’s also concerning that the Phillies struck out 81 times on the road trip, four shy of their most strikeouts in a seven-game span in franchise history.

The Phillies can clinch the division as early as Monday night.

We dig into the offense, Zack Wheeler’s brilliance and more.

The Phillies only need to win one more game to make the postseason. They only need to win two more games to win the NL East.

It’s going to happen.

But the Phillies fell into a first-place tie with the Dodgers for the best record in the National League, following Thursday night’s loss to the Mets at Citi Field. Taijuan Walker allowed eight runs in 3 1/3 innings. He is 3-7 with a 6.91 ERA, which is the fifth-highest ERA for any Phillies pitcher since 1901 (minimum 80 innings pitched). The Phillies are 4-11 when Walker starts.

It isn’t just Walker, however. The Phillies’ No. 5 starter has been a problem since Spencer Turnbull got hurt in June. The Phillies’ No. 5 starters have a combined 14.14 ERA in their last eight starts. They are 2-6 in those games. Those losses could be the difference between having home-field advantage through the NLCS and playing Games 6 and 7 of the NLCS at Dodger Stadium, if both teams get that far.

Jim and Todd also talk about the Phillies’ offense. It’s struck out 44 times in the past three games.
