Didn’t cost you anything and if he was as bad as Harrison who cares cause you still had to pay kingery minors or majors. Plus he can play outfield and IF. Don't think Kingery is on the 40 man roster. Guess they could have brought him up when they dumped Harrison.

That said there’s no reason why Alec Bohm couldn’t have played tonight when he’s red hot instead of playing Castro. They just had a day off yesterday. Then you’re not gonna play him for this game but then you don’t even use him in the seventh inning when Castro came up. So you just wasted the opportunity to use him. He should’ve at least gotten the at bat instead of Castro late in the game.

He should’ve at least gotten the at bat instead of Castro late in the game. His lineup decisions many times are just mind numbingly stupid. Just baffling. That and the bullpen is why this team will get knocked out in the divisional round. That's if they make it that far.

I'm convinced theres a secret order in place that Kingery never wears a Phillies uniform again.

He was super hot at one point in the minors and Harrison was just awful then got hurt and they wouldn’t do it. So i figured he never was seeing CBP again. Frankly should just release him so he has a chance elsewhere as they aren’t gonna use him and wasting prime years of his career. Even if he sucks but you don’t have any plans using him then might as well him go as he’s a FA this offseason anyway

Personally I’d just play Rojas every day. His defense is a huge difference maker, and he’s hitting well against both lefties and righties. Small sample size of course, but .310 average against RHP, and .333 against LHP. So it isn’t like he’s shown (so far) to be a guy that can only hit lefties.

Unfortunately the Phillies analytics team and Thomson won’t. Should. But won’t the ridiculousness of bohm not playing last night after they had an off day on Monday just shows you it’s gonna be like that. Bohm not playing in the second game last night probably cost you a game as he likely does better than Castro and your lineup isn’t as inept from 6-8

August 9, 20232 yr Best way to keep a hot streak going according to Topper is to *checks notes* bench the hot player.

August 9, 20232 yr Thomson acts like they are 5 or 6 games up in the first wildcard spot. If they swept the doubleheader yesterday, then maybe, maybe I could get behind the lineup he has for today. But they didn't and why? Because once again he had another subpar lineup that cost him a game, starting with that stiff Castro. Thomson is all about rest for his guys yet today is Schwarber's first day off of the season, yet he has no problems resting the youthful guys like Bohm, Stott, and Marsh for no reason.

August 9, 20232 yr Turner leads it off with a base hit. He's been catching fire for the last 6 games... Nola needs the standing ovation for his next start.
