May 10May 10 Curious to see where the Phillies sit on June 4. After this Boston series, the next 6 series (18 games) are against teams over .500 (3 at pirates, 3 vs reds, 3 vs cleveland, 3 at SD, 3 at LA, 3 vs sd). This stretch probably tells us if we are buyer or sellers at the deadline.

May 10May 10 Sanchez has a shot to be better than wheeler considering wheeler became a cy young caliber pitcher in 2020 at 30. Sanchez isn’t even 30 yet.
May 10May 10 Marsh has to be on PEDs there’s no other explanation on why he’s hitting the way he has been. He’s been so good

The fact he’s hitting .286 against LHP in 28 ABs might be more surprising. Although he has a 36% K rate vs. LHP and one BB. Tends to lend to the fact he won’t hit that consistently vs. LHP over time.

May 10May 10 1 minute ago, Joe Shades 73 said:Must you bring everyone down with your negativity To his credit he’s just going for singles vs. LHP. Has 8 hits and 7 are singles. So he’s not trying to do too much. Gonna find out if he improved vs. LHP as our platoon options suck so forced to play him more.

He’s begun hitting RHP at an elite clip since last May. LHP is always the issue. If he actually is just avg he becomes a good starting OF. They need to just let him do it. If he fails you at least have an answer. If he is avg then should be thrilled. Dave’s incompetence to get a legit platoon option with him is going to force him to play more vs. LHP

Send Painter down.

LHV has all but one starter with ERA over 5. Wood would be the guy but they’ve not moved him up the system as fast as people thought when he was drafted.
May 12May 12 The biggest issue this year is that their starting pitching depth has fallen off a cliff, which should have been somewhat foreseeable. Wheeler has already exceeded expectations and been statistically excellent, but I actually think he's going to dip as the year goes on into more of a 2/3. We can't keep expecting so much from him. Sanchez is a stud. After that 1-2 punch, it's absolutely awful. Luzardo is talented but woefully inconsistent and is settling into a big down year. And Nola and Painter don't belong in a rotation. They went from absolutely incredible depth to only 2 guys you feel good about starting. And, more importantly, the starting rotation went from a huge strength that overcame other flaws to being a flaw.
