The Philadelphia Phillies have finalized their NLDS roster ahead of their matchup against the New York Mets, featuring 14 position players and 12 pitchers.
Left-hander Kolby Allard secured the final bullpen spot, despite competition from right-handers Max Lazar and Spencer Turnbull. The decision was influenced by the Mets' predominantly right-handed lineup.
Manager Rob Thomson indicated that the roster is strategically designed to counter the Mets' pitching, with adjustments possible depending on the left-handed starters they face.
