The 1999 Philadelphia Phillies season was the 117th season in the history of the franchise.

Offseason

  • November 5, 1998: Torey Lovullo was signed as a Free Agent with the Philadelphia Phillies.[1]
  • November 9, 1998: Paul Spoljaric was traded by the Seattle Mariners to the Philadelphia Phillies for Mark Leiter.[2]
  • November 19, 1998: Ricky Bottalico was traded by the Philadelphia Phillies with Garrett Stephenson to the St. Louis Cardinals for Jeff Brantley, Ron Gant, and Cliff Politte.[3]
  • December 22, 1998: Rob Ducey was signed as a Free Agent with the Philadelphia Phillies. [4]

Regular season

The Phillies were early contenders for the Wild Card, going a season-high 13 games over .500 on August 6 (61–48), but injuries to pitching staff ace Curt Schilling and third baseman Scott Rolen, as well as a struggling bullpen, proved too tough to overcome. In one particularly bad stretch from August 28 to September 14, the Phillies went 1–18.
