We posted a leaked version of the Phillies schedule at the end of August. It was listed as version "2A" and was correct as of August 6. The Phillies today issued their official 2016 schedule. The two versions are mostly the same.
Here are some changes from the previous draft:
- The New York Mets series scheduled from April 19-21 is now April 18-20
- The Marlins series scheduled from May 17-19 is now May 16-18
Once again, here are the highlights from our earlier post:
Here are some highlights:

- Toronto is the "natural rival" in 2016 with a home and home series in June. No Boston games.
- Home interleague games are against the Chicago White Sox, Cleveland, and Kansas City
