On December 2, 2021, Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred announced a lockout of players, following expiration of the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the league and the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA). On March 10, 2022, the MLB and MLBPA agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement, thus ending the lockout. Opening Day is scheduled for April 7.[1] Although MLB previously announced that several series would be cancelled due to the lockout, the agreement provides for a 162-game season, with originally canceled games to be made up via doubleheaders.[2]

Offseason

Lockout
Main article: 2021–22 Major League Baseball lockout

The expiration of the league's collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with the Major League Baseball Players Association occurred on December 1, 2021 with no new agreement in place.[3] As a result, the team owners voted unanimously to lockout the players stopping all free agency and trades.[4][5]

The parties came to an agreement on a new CBA on March 10, 2022.[6]

Rule changes

Pursuant to the new CBA, several new rules were instituted for the 2022 season. The National League will adopt the designated hitter full-time, a draft lottery will be implemented, the postseason will expand from ten teams to twelve, and advertising patches will appear on player uniforms and helmets for the first time.[7][8]

Acquisitions

The Phillies began their bullpen overhaul on November 5, 2021, when they claimed left-handed relief pitcher Ryan Sherriff off of waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays.[24]

On March 15, 2022, Brad Hand and Jeurys Familia both signed one-year contracts with the Phillies.[25] On March 20, Kyle Schwarber signed a four-year, $79 million contract, making him the Phillies first high tier acquistition of the off-season.[26] On March 17, 2022, Nick Castellanos agreed to a five-year, $100 million contract with the Phillies, putting them over the Luxury Tax. Castellanos announced the deal by posting a picture of the Philadelphia skyline on his Instagram page.

    Season notes

    April

    Because the 2021–22 MLB lockout delayed the beginning of the 2022 MLB season, the Phillies' Opening Day game against the Oakland Athletics took place on April 8.[28] Aaron Nola made his fifth consecutive Opening Day start, the longest such streak of any Phillies pitcher since Steve Carlton opened every season from 1977 to 1986.[29] Offseason acquisition Kyle Schwarber, batting in the leadoff position, hit a home run in his first at bat, while rookie Bryson Stott, making his MLB debut, recorded a hit in the sixth inning. Although Nola allowed a three-run home run in the seventh inning, the lineup continued to score, and the Phillies won 9–6 to start the season.[30] Kyle Gibson started the next game on April 9, earning the win as he struck out 10 batters for only the fourth time in his MLB career. Offensively, other free agent signee Nick Castellanos hit his first home run of the season in the first inning, and the Phillies sealed the win 4–2 following consecutive home runs from Rhys Hoskins and Jean Segura.[31] Philadelphia was unable to sweep the Athletics, however, as a lack of offensive power led to a 4–1 loss on April 10. The Phillies' one run came on a solo home run from Segura in the ninth inning.[32]
