Outside of 1964, when I was too young to really even know what baseball was, I can't think of another time where the Phillies had a lead in a pennant race and failed to make it. I recall several times where they finished out of the money, but as far as I can remember, they were always the ones doing the chasing and just came up short.

I hear about 1964 from my dad every single time the Phillies are coming down the stretch in a potential playoff push. I can’t imagine watching that unfold. He really doesn’t trust the Phillies with anything since that. 

 

What happened to Sundays with Schmidt? did they realize he was terrible?

Robertson back to being trash again

Hoskins is an embarrassment defensively at first base

Loser team doing loser things.  WC lead down to 2.5.  After the Nats (who have been playing well) they face Alcantara, Cabrera and Lopez.  Then the Braves.  Ouch 

Robertson with his 7th blown save of the season. Harper and Schwarber 0-8 with 4 strikeouts between them. Good stuff.

Losing culture.  Been this way for years and not sure how to fix it.  They just have nobody that can step up 

They are going to get the 3rd wildcard just because the Brewers are worse

Now that is a playoff bound lineup.

This team truly does not deserve the postseason.

Random question, how many games this year have the Phillies had their complete lineup out there? by that i mean the best lineup they could have which includes schwarber, hoskins, bohm, harper, realmuto, castellanos, segura, stott and marsh/CF? Really feels like the last 4 months it’s been under 20 games.

Not many, but they’ve also decided to rest guys when they didn’t have to.  They’ve been acting like the playoffs we’re guaranteed and now looks like they’ll pay for it, deservingly so.

I think he’s been having some health issues.

Sure let’s give Bohm and Realmuto a day off why not

They also have Monday off.

Sosa hustle worth at least 2 runs now.

Edmundo Sosa is gonna become a cult hero in Philly 

Wouldn’t have sent Suarez back out for the 7th when he’s struggled with control the past 2 weeks after 4 innings. The fact we got 6 out of him we should’ve been happy about.
