The Phillies have clinched a winning record, and Paul has clinched some allergies. Apart from that, there's a lot up in the air (including ragweed).

So much of what the Phillies hope to accomplish in the playoffs hangs in the health and effectiveness of Jesús Luzardo, so we brace for what his final 2-3 appearances of the season might look like. Plus, the wide and unusual cratering of Luis Arraez and Brandon Marsh, and what to do about it.

We review pitching plans, overcoming the biggest weaknesses, and the need to really go for it.

Jesús Luzardo is the man these days, never more so than at this moment following his masterful complete game shutout to cap a split of the Phillies' four-game series with Atlanta over Labor Day weekend. With time running out on the division but a playoff berth firmly in control, the Phillies now have 18 regular season games left to get their affairs (and seeding) in order.

The Phillies went 21-7 last month, a remarkable stretch as the season turns its final corner. One last month to go, and the Phillies are in a strong playoff position with more games against tough competition in front of them.
