T he Phillies are coming off a dreadful weekend, dealt a three-game sweep at the hands
of the non-competitive Cubs. That dropped Philadelphia to 49-46, a game behind the
Cardinals for the final Wild Card spot in the National League. Having outscored opponents by
44 runs and with a firm win-now mentality, there’s no question the Phillies are nevertheless
going to be motivated to upgrade the roster over the coming eight days in an effort to snap
their decade-long playoff drought.
President of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski addressed the team’s deadline outlook
Monday evening, implying the club will look to add to the starting rotation (link via Scott
Lauber of the Philadelphia Inquirer). That seems directly tied to the health (or lack thereof) of
right-hander Zach Eflin, who has spent the past month on the injured list due to another right
knee issue. The 28-year-old hurler remains without a clear recovery timeline, and the Phils
front office head intimated that uncertainty could lead them to look for back-end help.
“I’d love for him to come back, but I don’t know when,” Dombrowski said of Eflin.
“So I don’t think, from my perspective, that I can just say we’re going to wait for that
to happen. I don’t think we can just sit here and wait to see what takes place.”
The Phillies landed one of the trade market’s top starters last summer, sending a prospect
package centering on Spencer Howard to the Rangers for Kyle Gibson (and reliever Ian

W hen recent surveys revealed that some workers who left their jobs during
the Great Resignation ultimately regretted quitting, the narrative quickly
shifted from how organizations should address retention to chalking this worker
exodus up to an ill-planned whim.
However, some of the most significant findings were overlooked. In one survey,
more than a third of respondents who expressed buyer’s remorse also felt work-
life balance had declined (36%), about a third (30%) said their new job was
different than what they were led to expect, and one in four (24%) said they miss
the culture of their old job.
Rather than fixating on the fact that some Great Resigners are having second

place–and that they weren’t able to escape even in their next job.
Toxic work culture was found to be the number one predictor of attrition. It’s 10.4
times more likely than low compensation to contribute to employee turnover.
Sadly, stories of employees experiencing hostility, discrimination, and bullying are
in abundant supply, and overwhelmingly it’s women and women of color paying
the highest price.
These findings align with the first installment of LHH’s Readiness Index, an
ongoing three-year behavioral science study that measures how ready people are
for their next career move. We focused on financial service employees across the
U.S., U.K., and France, using a series of implicit response tests and explicit
questionnaires to better understand the gap between what people said and what
they really felt about work, their careers, and their futures at large.
